    And almost immediately afterwards, the teams shake hands on a draw with Surrey on 260-9.

    Still only one win this season then, but on the other hand we're still unbeaten.

    Gutted for him! Would have been in a very select group of players to get 6 in a row. He really is world class! Would have been special to see him to it for Surrey! Really is a privilege to have him play for Surrey!

    Thinking of the best batsmen of this generation - I'm talking Lara, Printing, Tendulkar, Dravid, Kallis, um, Younis Khan surely Sanga has to up there with the very best.

    57 average in tests is not too shabby.

    Surely you've not forgotten the 2nd best Test batsman of all time.....Adam Voges, with an average of 61.87 !

    Actually, Joe Root has a Test average on a par with Lara and Tendulkar, 52 and 53 respectively, I wonder how the Test captaincy might affect his average?

    Also, Steve Smith has a Test Average of 61.05 just below Voges, eff knows how though, I still cant figure out why bowlers havnt figured out that you bowl around the wicket aiming at leg stump and pack the leg side field.

    Its interesting to look at the Test stats, for example, Kohli has an average below 50 whereas Pujara has an average of 51.

    I was aiming for the 10k middle order club, but you can include cook as well.

    Steve Smith is a funny one, brought in as a leggie, just as well he could bat! He has an odd technique but it works for him. Did ok at the IPL.

    I reckon Root will be up there in time.

    Any idea what are Porter's figures since the over before lunch? He's a good young prospect by all accounts but shouldn't be knocking over five Surrey batsmen like that.

    Not sure but in last week and half he has got career best list A figures, career best innings figures and career best match figures.

    Tom Curran rested. Sibley stays and Batty returns in place of Virdi.

    Sibley going slowly. But that's not a problem. It's exactly the situation he is designed for. He is under no pressure to score quickly so can play his game and had long. Hope he gets a biggun.

    Porter and Wagner have both been off the field with niggles but are back on.

    Matt Quinn off with a suspected side strain.

    Stoneman gets his hundredafter hitting 3 boundary in a row including a 6. And he's just hit another. He's on 111 off 122 balls.
