Good to see Cook doing well. Always like to see Essex players go well.

Been a quality start from the Aussies with the new ball.

Well at lunch the 400 looks on.
So much for all the Aussies slaughtering me yesterday for believing in my team.

On what i have seen of their spinners this winter i'd take O'Keefe and Hauritz.
Would leave Smith out, not ready yet and can only harm him playing him now.

Okay ladies and gentlemen, that's probably it from me for the night, but please do try to contain your collective disappointment.
Pretty good morning for England, putting on 110 runs for the loss only of the nightwatchman and drinkswatchman, and comfortably negotiating the first few overs of the new ball. Cook generally awesome and it is, once again, Bell's to throw away. The upshot is, we have a fighting chance of getting the 400 that we really need in this game.

Hildreth is still a road warrior for me. Over 75% of his FC hundreds have come at home. Don't like watching Taylor bat. As tortuous as watching Cook. Best batsman in the country after Morgan who isn't playing test cricket is Jimmy Adams. Shame he is an opener. Had a phenomenal past few years and he is very easy on the eyes.

**** knows. What a horrible selection. A specialist number 7.

So would I and presumably Aus will play two spinners. Good job both men can bat, probably going to need it there.

If he keeps this up, he'll surpass Herbert Sutcliffe (734 runs) into second place for most runs in an Ashes series for England. If he gets another 199 runs, he'll knock off Wally Hammond (905 runs) for most runs for England in the Ashes, but it is fair to say that it won't be happening

To clarify, I meant spin bowler. Smith bowls darts and Hauritz just floats it up there without anything on the ball.

Smith is like the guy you let in the team purely to satisfy his milf mother who picks him up every day at practise.
He can't bat, can't bowl.
He can't bat, can't bowl.

70 more runs and Nasser is wearing the pink suit...

Or the **** striker you nickname Ole Gunnar Solskjaer to keep his spirits up when you bring him on with 5 minutes left every game.

Wish I had sky.
Oh, and how anyone can argue against Eoin coming in for Collingwood is a mystery. Once he does, this team really will have zero weaknesses.
