    *Official* Pakistan tour of Ireland, England and Scotland 2018

    Chaps, I have spare tickets for days one and two at Headingley. Does anyone know whether I might be able to sell them outside the ground?

    The 'real' Steven Smith question...

    Hell of a lot of 'ifs' in this. Tendulkar played Test cricket for 24 years and still finished with an average over 54. Smith's being doing it for what, 7 years?

    England Fans - how is this series shaping up compared to 06/07 and 13/14?

    Wait, did somebody say Warner is at least as good as Boycott? That's really rather funny.

    Headingley ticket advice

    You don't need to have kids with you to buy a family stand ticket, do you?

    Headingley ticket advice

    I’m looking to buy tickets for two days’ play at the Pakistan test match in June. This will be my first visit to Headingley, and I’m looking to avoid: (a) Pissed people (b) Pakistan fans blowing horns into my ears With that in mind, where should I be looking to sit? Thanks in advance.

    England Fans - how is this series shaping up compared to 06/07 and 13/14?

    Me neither, if you'd read my post properly.

    England Fans - how is this series shaping up compared to 06/07 and 13/14?

    There was much made of the 'review' after the 06/07 whitewash, but as you say we were up against one of the historically great sides on a revenge mission. Steve Smith aside, this is a pretty average Australia outfit, and I think the time has come for changes in the English game to allow us to...

    The Steven Smith Question

    I'm not saying for a minute there's anything sinister about him. More that, well, I could see him going back to his hotel room after knocking off another 150 and engaging in ferociously competitive play with He-Man figures, or something.

    ***Official*** 4th Test at the MCG

    A 2nd innings 335 at the SCG and then off into the sunset.

    Combined XI from the first test

    Stoneman for Bancroft. Bairstow for Paine. Otherwise Aus. EDIT: Should have read the subject header. At least it would explain 4 Englishmen being "reasonable"...

    ***Official*** 4th Test at the MCG

    12,000 Test runs, 4-time Ashes winner, 31 Test hundreds, father of two. On tour with a bunch of 'lads' whose accolades include owning ripped jeans and concave faces. A man can have only so much patience.

    The Steven Smith Question

    I'd be upset if this were to be taken as a dig, but there have been occasions when listening to him talk where I'd be lying if I said I wasn't thinking of the spectrum and his place thereon. He strikes me as inhabiting a savant's plain.

    The Steven Smith Question

    If his success is ruining cricket then christ knows how folk would have dealt with Bradman today. More power to him, it's up to the rest to catch up, surely? I mean, I thought the whole point of sport was to strive to beat and to overcome the best, rather than wave the white flag and go home as...

    The Future of Test Cricket

    I'm looking at crossing the border for some international cricket in Leeds next year so had a look online. Seems there's a Test v Pakistan and an ODI v India. While I'd love to see India, I'm only parting with my hard-earned for real cricket. Those dismissing the notion of voting with feet...

    ***Official*** 4th Test at the MCG

    Given the choice between four more failures from Cook and 4-1, or a big hundred and 5-0, I'd probably go for the 4-1 but I'd think twice. With some of the dick head millennials currently polluting the England camp, a bona fide legend like Cook doesn't deserve to go out like this. As an aside...

    ***Official*** 4th Test at the MCG

    As an England fan, Melbourne and Sydney are always my favourite tests. For some reason we save those two for not playing like arseholes. Surely we can nick a 1-4 for a party back at Trafalgar Square?

    Australian selectors how good are they

    They played a blinder to be fair. The Aussie press really are hysterical idiots at times.
