*Official* First Test at Lord's

[Jacknife]

WTF was that last ball from Dhoni, edged it but didn't carry.

 

[GIMH]

Our session that. Excellent.
Cracking day so far. Follow on on the cards if Broad gets at Dhoni after tea.

 

[Daemon]

****ing Broad wasted all his **** bowling on SL, and the complete opposite for Sharma in the WI. Confident that we can get past the follow on requirement, but beyond that theres nothing left for us but to try and scrape a draw.

Was always going to be the case, quite pleased with my prediction this would play out like the last time we were here.

 

[Anil]

damn, not a good start! we are most likely gonna lose this...

 

[AlwaysProteas]

I thought that was ODIs only?

# No runners in international cricket

ICC board meeting: Runners abolished, ODI and run-out laws tweaked | Cricket News | Cricinfo ICC Site | ESPN Cricinfo

Writing was a bit ambiguous though, so I could be wrong.

Edit: The rule comes in effect October 1st so it's all irrelevant.

Last wicket rain draw?

Last wicket rain draw?

Possibly, it was more that we'd have a bad 1st innings and have to bat to save the game. It is the Indian way.

I really hope Strauss has a Follow On decision to make so that Scaly can come on and rant at the stupidity of whatever he decides to do.

 

[tooextracool]

Swann is just too good for lefthanders. India in a mess here.

Was a pretty ordinary delivery tbf.

Not comfortable with Raina in england tbh. And the worst part is Yuvraj is the only backup.

LOL @ the commentators talking about how biased the ICC public XI was and how Holding was emailing people in disbelief about it.

Haha yeah didn't surprise me at all that Holding was up in arms.

 

[TumTum]

Evans smashing his time trial. Come on ffs!

He has actually done it! Who would have thought! I thought he would give up after all those near misses, WAG.

 

[Jono]

How good has today been. Amazing day of cricket. So tense. Such high quality.

Don't we have a TDF thread?

It's not like this series or match is anything special
