    *Official* 2nd Test at Lord's

    In terms of saving the game, I think England need to survive the rest of the day here and then it'd be pretty doable. Follow-on is pretty irrelevant as Clarke won't enforce it, though runs do mean Australia would need to bat longer in the second innings before declaring again. Bat the rest of...

    Ponting's Ashes XI

    Aside from the fact that it should have Ponting in it it's a pretty good list I think. You could pick Langer over Cook (after bringing in Ponting) for playing well in more series, but you can make a good case for Cook simply because he was so important to England winning in Australia for the...

    I think some is forecast on the last day.

    *Official* 2nd Test at Lord's

    Did beat the bat once to be fair. But yeah not the most terrifying finish to the day.

    Lyon looks more and more like the yellow guy from Sin City every year.

    The strangest response.

    *Official* 2nd Test at Lord's

    It's not that flat though. It's a very nice pitch to bat on but there's been some evident life there, Moeen was getting a bit of turn, Broad and Stokes got a bit of movement off the wicket etc. It's just a normal good batting wicket, a touch slow but more pace than Cardiff, with less turn. The...

    Would like to see Starc on for Hazlewood now. Reckon Stokes will struggle against him early on.

    Amazing over.

    Classic Johnson dismissal, just looks so much more dangerous here than in Cardiff with the ball actually carrying through at pace. The biggest wicket too.

    Yeah Hazlewood is definitely bowling very well. Overall the difference in quality in the first hour of bowling compared to yesterday is significant.

    That's actually a really nice ball. Plenty of movement through the air out there.

    *Official* 2nd Test at Lord's

    That was the most obvious plan ever.

    *Official* 2nd Test at Lord's

    Nice first over from Starc. Wasn't a great shot from Lyth of course but alright bowling, good bouncer to finish. Just need to bowl well with the new ball here, think there will be some movement.

    I think Australia will come out again after tea, just really briefly.

    5 mins to tea...

    May as well just bat until tea then right? You'd just lose overs to the change of innings for no reason since tea is in 25 mins.

    Nevill's last movement right before the bowler delivers looks like he's not ready and about to pull away to me. Can't unsee it.

    Botham's answer to that last Australian to score a double hundred away from home question was pathetic. Border and Bradman? Jesus.
