I don't like cricket, oh no, I love it!

I'm going to the Ashes Test at Old Trafford on the Thursday and Sunday.  It should be good if McGrath's still out and we play like we did this morning.

wait and see mate wait and see.

warney just got one.

an error on poontang's part to bowl first first, but if it continues like this i reckon it will be a drawn test.

Hopefully the test will still be going on the Sunday.McGrath has twisted his ankle and will more than likely be available for selection.
Current score 124-1.Tressy has been superb this morning(69 n.o.) and we still have some time(hopefully) before Pietersen enters the arena.
ning nang noo  :p

I don't think 407 is as bad as the Radio 4 commentary made out.  Runs on the board might look better if the weather turns nasty - as predicted.  There's a long way to go yet, but I'm fairly happy with our score.

It's the number of years between 607 B.C.E. and 1914 A.D. of course.

It's great to see England competing with the world's best.  The boys have worked so hard over the last few years and the Ozzies need bringing down a peg or two (or three or four...)

It wasn't that long ago we were ranked the second worst team in the world. (pre-Bangladesh of course, I think New Zealand were below us but Zimbabwe were ahead, if my memory serves me right.)
