Much better looking team tbh. At least, form wise!0
-
Actually I'd be tempted by Curran at 6 given his form (and lack thereof with the ball)0

Hameed's hair and beard situation is virtually a carbon copy of my own. Feeling vindicated tbh3

Curran 5-1-28-0
Robinson & Anderson 12-5-15-00 -
Charlton fan in our row in the new upper Compton. I’m end of row and stood up to let them in. I said as they’re Charlton it was fine. The younger of the 2 had a Charlton hoodie and votv in pocket. Anyone on here?3

Anderson's figures today are statistically good but the batsmen have had to play less than half his deliveries
Ollie's quality tho1 -
Very poor start for England.Wasnt expecting anyrhing else to be honest.0

100-0
Doesn't look a great decision by Root to put India in - especially if the wicket starts to turn when we have to bat last on it0 - Sponsored links:

Kohli said they would have bowled too.0

Certainly we haven't been 150-2 off 50 overs too many times in the recent past but with conditions set to improve for the next couple of days I would hope that we do. It's that final day that concerns me.1 -
I’m ten pints in and
can’t see
prolly 65 -
another cliché from ye olden days of cricket .. win the toss, think about putting the oppo in .. THEN BAT0
-
I haven’t picked up a cricket bat in 25 years but I wouldn’t mind facing curran2

Can't see Curran playing too many more Tests. Wood might be running out of time as well. England need more bowlers like Robinson, not like Wood. Yes blah blah pace in Australia, didn't see McGrath getting dropped for home Tests now did you1
-
I see a young chap named Cook scored a century for Essex today, maybe worth a place in the England team

Bar closed at 6…. Hmmmmm match continuing till 6.50….0

Curran is the weak link bowlers build pressure for him to jsut throw it away literally. I understand he has the potential to be a fantastic player but Mahmoud is such a bigger threat.0

Quality innings by Rahul. Impressive how this series he's really been able to knuckle down and play the Sibley/Cook way when necessary, as it's not his natural game0

As a bowler does he have the potential to bowl a side out eg take 5 or 6 wickets in an innings? No
Can he score a test match century here and there ? Probably not
As an all rounder he doesn't compare to stokes or Ali or even Woakes
He should concentrate on the IPL circus
I might sound harsh but I know I am right

Lords need to address the entrances as that queue for the north gate was horrific from 10.30, almost queuing back to St. John’s Wood. Capacity at that end has significantly increased but infrastructure has not. The teams on the gates are brilliant but do not have the tools to get through the crowds at that pinch point. Thankfully the toss and start were delayed or they’d have been soooo many people singing the nash on St. John’s road. Also, we had tickets on the new app but the computer asked to see the print outs. Many people didn’t have them. We had email versions but took ages to load up which didn’t help the queues.The app ticket also give NO information about how to get to your seat (no staircase or entrance gate which is fundamental) and the new signage for the Compton upper was dreadful where the arrows point in the wrong direction. The temp bar doesn’t serve much either. Great view though.4

From memory, I printed my ticket but also had it on the App which worked fine. The whole point of the App if that you don't need to print a ticket...
I'm in the Lower Edrich tomorrow (and have printed my ticket!)0 -
