I wish I could make sense of Ed Smith and his beatnik selections sometimes, but this one is beyond me.

England 40-4 at lunch?

11.38, 15-2, (Jennings & Root gone).

12.11, 28-3, Bairstow.

Christ

Don't you know that LFGSS cricket predictions are now hardwired to be fully accurate?

I've never been secondary lightning before.

Fuck this shit team

Meanwhile, a certain Ian Bell has just passed 20,000 first-class runs and nailed another ton...

Not suggesting he's the answer. But a calm, experienced head might do this lot the world of good in the short term?

Have we ever lost a home Test series after going 2-0 up?

Oh Moeen.....

Oh Moeen.....

(double-post, but I'll leave it because I'm that disappointed)

Sammy boy showing the top order up whilst Surrey are crushing Notts. A lovely day.

Broad out,
assuming India have to face 12/13 overs tonight: 27-3 at close.
(Broad should be working on his batting 400+ wickets/4000+ runs would put him up there
with Kapil Dev).

Come on then Jimmy, let’s have a couple tonight...

I’d give Curran a bowl with the shiny, new cherry too. He’ll be buzzing and the swing is there. But dead cert Root to give Broad the spell.

Yep. He’s been rubbish in these couple of overs too. What is it with England and their cricket-by-numbers? (Actually it’s a problem with a lot of other sports here also)

Can we get Kohli out soon please

Yep - tomorrow morning probably.

We got him out with a slip catch, Jesus

We held a slip catch, Jesus

Well, this is slightly better

Yes, this game could turn into a corker.

Especially if some of our actual, bona fidé batters could, maybe, perhaps, if they wouldn't mind, score some runs tomorrow.

I just spat my shout out from that Ashwin shot. Oh God.

Now we ARE talking!
