Hell of a fightback this, Bairstow is on fire! Not watching anymore but can’t believe the run rate of these two

“Statsguru is telling me than no player in the history of test cricket has ever made back to back 100s at better than a run a ball…" from ESPNcricinfo. They have now!

That's brilliant.

Adam Hose is on fire in the Blast at the moment. What a knock tonight, century off 51 balls.

thekidfromstrettoncamp · Jun 25, 2022

Listened to it last night.The batting first to me is the best way.Once the score gets past 200 (which i know cannot always happen ) the opposition seem to panic at double figures per over

Worcestershire are awful at the moment and once Ali goes at the end of the season they will be constantly at the bottom of everything

Mitchell

Scrub that.

LastGarrison · Jun 26, 2022

Unorthodox catch by Billings there!!

Fair play to Leach. Just shows the difference a bit of confidence can make

Repeating what the commentators have been saying but really like the look of Potts. Hopefully Ollie Robinson will be looking on and decide to pull his finger out with his fitness

Another great test and exciting chase to come

I can't make it but went to check out the ticketing site pretty soon after it was announced and there was already a queue 10,000 strong with an estimated time over over an hour. Great to see that kind of take up, even for a Monday. All set up to be another cracking day

David O'Day · Jun 27, 2022

i'd forgot that the "5th" test against India is starting Friday

SkyBlueSoul · Jun 27, 2022

Still a few tickets left as well

SkyBlueSoul · Jun 28, 2022

Loving all these niche little stats

thekidfromstrettoncamp · Jun 28, 2022

just watched Ireland T20 they needed a 6 off the last ball failed by four in a game of over 440 runs.

All change at Warwickshire Sibley going back to Surrey and Ed Barnard signing from Worcestershire but the report says that Moeen Ali and Saqib Mahmood from Lancashire are signing for the Bears

If anyone needs cheering up this morning, here's David Warner copping a bail to the bollocks in Sri Lanka

SkyBlueSoul · Jul 1, 2022

Absolutely can't get my head around this Test happening today. 10:30 start as well

The 10:30 start thing is odd. The official reason is to not clash with the Blast games in the evening but that's never been a consideration before, not even in the New Zealand series. Are they starting tests early when the Hundred is on and this is their get out when people start moaning everything is scheduled around the hundred.

Its not a bad idea tho, gives you more to in the evening to make up lost time but Edgbaston is a pain in the arse to get to by public transport so they're starting in a half empty ground.

chiefdave · Jul 1, 2022

Anyone know of any good unofficial parking at Edgbaston? Going to the T20 and forgot to book and for some reason it looks like they've only got two of the smaller car parks operating which are sold out.

Don't really want to just turn up and have to drive around hoping for the best.

Have a look on Parkopedia. Don’t know the details of the game you’re going to but it’ll give an idea of what’s available round there and cost/spaces available.

Darren Gough said the early start was for Indian TV

CCFCSteve · Jul 1, 2022

Worked out well with the weather anyway !

chiefdave · Jul 2, 2022

Have they forgotten its a test and not a T20? 35 off Broads over.

chiefdave · Jul 3, 2022

Balls going round corners this morning, will do well to avoid the follow on from here.

Terry Gibson's perm · Jul 3, 2022

A little bit stupid by Stokes there

Ian1779 · Jul 3, 2022

Bairstow is on absolute fire…

Brighton Sky Blue · Jul 3, 2022

Should avoid the follow on barring a disaster but a whiff of ‘same old England’ about how things have gone

Terry Gibson's perm · Jul 3, 2022

It doesn’t help when you start every innings two wickets down as the opening pair have little idea.

SkyBlueSoul · Jul 3, 2022

Brighton Sky Blue · Jul 3, 2022

Incredible

SkyBlueSoul · Jul 4, 2022

Did not expect the chase to start as well as it has. Another decent partnership tonight and only lose 1 more wicket max (after Pope has just gone ) and I'll start to believe

SkyBlueSoul · Jul 4, 2022

Fuck me, that run out is absolutely woeful

chiefdave · Jul 4, 2022

total self destruction here.
