Oh and Chris Froome...can't take to him I'm afraid, too many unanswered questions relating to drugs for my liking. Team Sky need to come out and explain all of the findings which I don't see happening!
Some people are like Slinkies … not really good for anything, but you can’t help smiling when you see one tumble down the stairs. |

Well at least we're making them bat again. Sixth wicket stand showing the rest of them up.

I have been very critical of England on here for good reason but well done to Bess and Buttler who both showed grit,determination and application, qualities sadly lacking in general until they came to the crease.Their partnership was a far cry from what we had witnessed beforehand.

Edited by Willo (26 May 2018 7.25pm)[/quo My forecast of Bess to score 150 not out is well on the way to being delivered. He obviously realises that anything else would be a disaster and a national humiliation.

One of them is supposed to have said, "England can still win this test match". Which is about the same delusion quotient as "This Karius fellow, will we go in for him or what?"

I told my wife this morning to expect an England collapse - It took pakistan just 27 mins to take the 4 wickets. At least "Bumble" said "Shocking stuff from England".

This is completely the fault of the ECB. Young working class boys in this country aren't interested in cricket and working class boys make up the vast majority of their available material. They went for exclusive cash with Sky and ultimately holed the game. Edited by Stirlingsays (27 May 2018 4.02pm)
