Pat Cummins Is A Magnificent Cricketer – Darren Berry

Darren Berry took to Twitter to express disappointment over Pat Cummins‘ captaincy and mentioned that he would resign from the captaincy after the ongoing series.

“Pat Cummins is a magnificent cricketer no doubt but remember this msg – he will resign from the captaincy after the Ashes series. The question is do they go back to Smudge (Steve Smith) or move forward to Head or Marsh?” Berry tweeted.

This Is Unwatchable – Darren Berry

In another tweet, Berry criticized Cummins for being clueless about his captaincy and described the match as unwatchable.

“This is unwatchable. Goodnight to all lovers of the game of our great game of cricket. This is absolutely insane to anyone watching this s**t with half a clue about the game. Enough is enough now … keep banging em in lads WTF,” Berry wrote on Twitter.

Following James Anderson’s dismissal, Berry expressed shock and disbelief, sarcastically stating that he had never seen anything like it before.

“Well, knock me over with a feather, a fast ball at the stumps to the No.11 gets him out. I’m shocked. What a circus. Never seen anything like this ever.”

Jonny Bairstow formed an exceptional partnership of 66 runs with No.11 batter Jimmy Anderson. The score was 9-526 when Anderson came to the crease, and Bairstow contributed the majority of the runs during the partnership with his aggressive batting approach, almost pushing the total towards 600.
