    i notice that carse, mahmood and stone all figure in this list too. whoever plays for england in the next test, the bowling unit is gonna be very inexperienced. hope woakes stays fit.

    I thought he resigned about a month ago and the coach is sanath or whoever was hiding under the towel on the balcony for most of the day;) Kamindu is the new Bradman.

    At least theyr playing, but can they finish things today before the rain comes as Sunday could be a washout? And news about wood is a bummer too.

    I dont like the term attack leader, it brings to mind those thugs in the riots or 1 of those vicious dogs crim types wander around with. TMS had a long discussion as to whether Gavaskar had once scored a century left handed, eventually deciding he hadnt. Must have been a slow day.

    Just as the CC and proper cricket restarts the weather deteriorates :( Even if there isnt rain i think the floodlites will be on a lot of the time at OT. The weather looks pretty miserable on the last 2 days especially.

    16 wkts on the 1st day? pitch looks pretty green, gave quite a bit of help to the seamers. Losing Silva was a killer, gonna be hard for windies to take advantage. 160 looks a long way off still.

    i can understand that i just wish it was the CC teams that had front billing not a crap format which looks so fake yes indeed; he went for 28 off 10 balls. For once I wished i'd watched the 100 as the mysterious and usually absent John Turner bowled 5 balls at TB tonite.

    Its all a bit strange if Cox is gonna bat 6. As I believe hes opened many times for Kent and often has batted at 3 as well, he would be ideal replacement for creepy. I dunno why they dont have him open and have dan at 6. Meanwhile SL all out at worcester for 139 in very damp and bowler...

    If its a torn hamstring i'd be surprised if stokes is fit for the mini ashes in september or the pakistan tour. is atkinson playing in the 100 circus?

    I think its likely to be another recall for Curran. Higgins is very consistant in the CC but i dont think hes their sort of player. I suspect hes in the same pile as dawson.

    I'd be surprised if they go into a test at Old Trafford in august without a spinner. i think this shows the problem when Stokes isnt available, we have to play 3 seamers and a spinner, or have a long tail.

    That polish girl in the boxing came into the final against the woman who isnt a man, with a huge bruise/cut under 1 eye, and led with her head and got totally mashed. terrible mismatch, not a spectacle you wanna see.

    If she needs a new challenge, Laura Kenny to be the next landlady at the Queen Vic!

    first time i wanted a snoozer to win, but a bit of a farce, they had to lower the bar to height they and others had already cleared. didnt barshim and tam agree to share a gold once? i spose that needs both athletes to agree. USA finish with 34 athlete medals, but GB did well to grab a few...
