On my way up from overcast Hampshire to take a break from all this Green malarky.  What's the weather like up there?

OK, so far....storms due at 1-ish. Typical huh? I'm on my way there too - I expect you will be on the mobile all day looking for news of Green.

Im just about to set off too. Really looking forward to it. Apparently we should expect a couple of flash heavy showers before lunch but it should clear up for the start of the match.

Waiting for bus to station and sun has come out. Here's hoping.....

Great performance. Might shut up those that were having a big rant after one bad game of T20.

Back on train looking for food. Competent performance but can't help feeling we lost our way batting after Morgan went

Makes a change from throwing the ball at the bat.....
