That's my excuse too
Try cocodamol (morphine). Works for me but can give serious nightmares. Woody (great fan btw) is a bit of a sicknote. Tongue is a young replacement for Mo actually. Root showed enough with the ball to be almost considered an all rounder. i would have thrown young Rehan in at the deep end, but ........ Drop Jimmy. Does that qualify as heresymustardcharlie

Not if Root gets him early after destroying Cummins
Tongue likes the deep end I've heard.

Has Mark Wood ever played a full test series? Feels like his always injured his a great bowler in all formats when fit. Probably should have changed his bowling action years ago though. Way too much pressure on his ankles

Looks ok for day 1 but then rain around after that
should be enough time for a result again though

Hi Carty. I've not seen much of you on here today.

I was worried you'd been banned.

Tongue is such a random selection.
And by 'random' I mean 'bad'. He is a bad selection. At least he's coming in for the right player.

I've got no idea who you think should have been playing instead

Rumour is he is leaving Worcestershire

Ho ho!
I think it's smart that he doesn't. He's a vital weapon for England in all 3 formats, if they want him to continue to be so - they need to look after him.
Has there ever been an all three formats 150+ guy who stays fit?

That’s okay because he’s playing for the best side in the world

Wondering what more Liam Dawson has to do to get picked. I was never much of a fan but he's on fire with bat and ball atm.
Seems a weird move to have a Wednesday Test when TV revenue is your main source of your product? I completely get it that you pack Lord's out whether you start on a Monday, Wednesday or Saturday, but surely the first three days falling on a weekday doesn't maximise the dreaded term of 'eyeballs' that administrators seek?

Can’t recall one.
I think England led the way a bit with rotation of their quicks, primarily as Broad and Anderson got older, but it’s become much more of a thing for everyone these days.
When the idea was first raised here, there was a huge backlash from the players and supporters alike. Now it’s just an accepted part of the game.
