Thanks for dropping by and looking at the video, here we are the real business end of the Test match, day 3 session 3, it's all to play for. And look out for the new addition to my set up as seen in my previous video, it looks rather snazzy, even if I do say so myself! Anyway thanks for watching and supporting the channel. Cheers Dean.
It is close Darren, and those dropped catches could cost England. Sometimes they just don’t stick. The next session will be the decider if the other sessions are anything to go by!
@@SubbuteoFocus England's field was well set with that slip cordon, it was working well, and also silly mid-on. But later there were quite a few shots that just seemed to sneak through the tight gaps in the slips.
Thanks Ian, I’m actually old school with my scoring, I use a proper cricket scorebook. In fact I’ve just ordered a new one off Amazon. A GM one, seems to have a better layout than the one I use. My current one is a RAM cricket book. I haven’t seen an app for scoring, I think just the complexity of cricket scoring something like that would be quite difficult to put together. I’ll be sticking with my Pencil and book until then 😉🏏👍
Ah, that’s the rules, if the ball finishes in the player catching cup it’s out. Catching the ball on the full would be quite an achievement, so what you saw is a legitimate fair catch in the rules 👍
@@jameskelly2559 great to hear you’re playing the game, like I’ve said many times I think the cricket is a very underrated game compared to the football. Very enjoyable to play and works really well as a solo game 🏏👍
@@SubbuteoFocus Ive only really played any Subbuteo as a solo. Ive been playing the football again a few years and loving it just as much as when I was a kid. You have. really brought the cricket game to life though, thanks for the vids.

So close. Hard to say which team will win this.
So many dropped catches in that session, let's hope England don't end up regretting those.

@@soitra yes sometimes I think you could have 5 or 6 tightly packed slips and the ball would still get through!
@@SubbuteoFocus I used to set my field in a "bodyline" format.
@@soitra those tests would have been interesting to play in, without helmets and the padding the players have today!
Enjoyable watch. Just as a question do you use an app to keep score? If so can you recommend one?

@@SubbuteoFocus many thanks. Will have a look on Amazon. Looking forward to day 4👍
the fourth Indian wicket down...surely it bounced before hands??

@@SubbuteoFocus Yes that does makes sense- thanks that's good to know as I bought an old Test Edition- inspired by your videos. Looking forward to it!
