Of course I'm looking for excuses to bag him. I think he's a dickhead.

Nah unfortunately not. Heading there tomorrow for day 4 though.
Speaking of which, can any of the English familiar with Lord's let me know how one goes about getting day 5 tickets? If by the end of tomorrow the day is set up decently, I'd be interested in heading down again.
Lord's website says they don't pre-sell day 5 tickets. Does that mean you rock up early in the morning on day 5 to buy them (like Wimbledon)? Or do you buy them online after day 4 finishes? Little bit confusing.

When I've done spur-of-the-moment Day 5s then it's just been a case of get on the train, rock up at the ground, get the tickets and watch the game. Only time capacity has been an issue on a Day 5 under these rules was Old Trafford in the 05 Ashes - can't see there being much of a demand squeeze on Monday unless Sachin goes to bed on 75*...

Suggestions are for cloud to build through the afternoon and into the evening, but that Sunday will be glorious.

Aren't the tickets being sold in the black?

0% chance. If India score 600 it will take them 2.5 days at the very least. Seriously, this isnt Australia people, we arent playing on tracks where scoring 4.5 an over is par.

India in such a horrendous position. England's bowlers are made for capitalizing on a lead like this. I just pray that Zaheer is fit for the next Test and that we manage to get through this with a draw. Highly anticipating India crumbling for sub-300 in the first innings but hope we can string something together in the second.

If Anderson is going to persist with bowling outswingers to the left hander, he'd be better off doing so from around the wicket here.

Nah, I think Anderson is one to trust with his plans. He has come along a great deal recently and a lot of it does have to do with his plans and guile.

The papers here reported that Zaheer hit the gym yesterday evening. If that's true, it leads me to believe it was a cramp after all.
