The Third Leg

an alternative and typically optimistically English look on Cricket. fluent in nonsense. Durham.
mightier than Harmison's Wide

So they're to walk out looking like packets of junk food?? Come on in kids! 🤑 Don't know whether to laugh or cry at this stage? Modern day parents are going to love that
- watch teams dressed as food we're trying to limit! (But guess that's what extensive research told the ECB)

Birmingham Pheonix - Nightclub

London Spirit - Light Ale

England fans when Warner departs and Smith enters:

#Ashes #bbccricket

[Tom @tomstyleo]

“Morning Stuart.... what are you having today?”

- I’ll have my usual please... David Warner on Toast.

Ben Stokes:

“I will not cease from mental fight.. nor shall my sword sleep in my hand... til we have knocked this 359 runs off half an hour before tea, in Englands Green & Pleasant Land”

Remarkable.

Whats with all the rain?

Are they playing these ODI’s in Manchester??

[The Third Leg @ThirdLegFineMan]

The thing we’re missing about the Alistair Cook thing is its bloody bad news for every other county team.

Essex are gonna be magnificent all season.

[The Third Leg @ThirdLegFineMan]

Cooky’s Crumbled...
Keaton’s been Busterd...
Root’s been cut...
Pope’s abdicated...

Its a bleak outlook.

[Matt @93Matty24]

Come on England, everyone but Root and Bayliss can see it we should be bowling bloody declare #EngvInd

[The Third Leg @ThirdLegFineMan]

DECLARE YOU CRAZY BASTARD!

[Tom @tomstyleo]

Ive fixed the headline in the Times so it actually makes sense.

[Chris Rushworth @ChrisRush22]

So apparently audiences are dying in the current game. We had a record crowd at Emirates Riverside last night.
Albeit not your 10-15 thousand you’d see in London, but 8000 in the north east is an incredible achievement!! Full of kids and families!! #whychange #VitalityBlast

[The Third Leg @ThirdLegFineMan]

Lots of love for Willey...

Always good to see

[The Third Leg @ThirdLegFineMan]

@tinamarieshaw Oh its the tv adverts... with their take on the Ghost Busters theme. @daciauk you are a disgrace

[The Third Leg @ThirdLegFineMan]

One thing this ODI has taught me...

I don’t want to buy a fucking Dacia Duster!!

Make it stop!!!!!

[The Durham Duck @DurhamDuck]

Can we get back to the real sport now folks?

Just because some bugger turned up to manage an international football team dressed like a snooker player 💤

Its just not cricket

#QUACK

[Dan Whiting @TheMiddleStump]

With England's exit us sports people can now have our game back after the last few weeks. I mean you don't get us lot down the pub watching Love Island screaming at the tv "Go on, shag him". #worldcup

[Jane Gulliford Lowes @LydiaJane13]

Twitter I need your help ! I’m trying to trace any descendants of R Pennicott DFM, a Halifax Bomber pilot who flew with 10 Sqn Bomber Command in WW2. Its an unusual surname - please share and RT! If you know any Pennicotts, please DM ❤️

[Jane Gulliford Lowes @LydiaJane13]

On the upside I was bloody sick of barbecues anyway
