Runs on the board Mutts ?

For sure, not sure of stat's, but I reckon batting 1st = more Test wins than bowling 1st, and probably by a fair margin, also, a healthy 1st innings total puts a bit of scoreboard pressure on team chasing it.

Rain predicted. Green tinge to the wicket.

Do we bat or bowl fella's ?

Anyone actually there ?

When you have Lyon, you bat first.

Play scheduled to start in 50 minutes, with 48 overs to be bowled if no more rain.

It started pissing down again 5 minutes prior to the scheduled toss. Listening to Talk Sport UK crossing to the ground a minute ago the bloke there said there’s very little chance of any play today. Night.

Spouses using Bigfooty to communicate. Now I've seen it all.

 

[SMaturin]

Don't mind bowling first in a 4-day test.

 

[darko]

Please, England weather. Please.

Hope it rains all day. And then next 3 days. And the next 3 Tests.

 

[LuvtheKangas]

^ Kindly f*** off.

 

[SpiderBurton22]

Jasom Roy is not a Test cricketers arseh*le.

The only Pom batsmen I trust are Root and Stokes.

 

[Groucho]

Got him! Surely an opener leaves that one

 

[LuvtheKangas]

What happens when a high quality test bowler meets a one-day slogger?

1-0 in the 2nd over, that's what happens.

 

[SpiderBurton22]

^ Kindly f*** off.

Darko or Roy?

 

[LuvtheKangas]

Darko or Roy?

I'm assuming Roy wanted to play, so ...

 

[Hearts to hearts]

Loving this bowling.

 

[Hojuman]

Ah England. Channelling Boycott and boring us into submission.

Throw the bat ya' mugs !

 

[Hearts to hearts]

Josh! “England in a bit of trouble” yes they are.
