Checked the scorecard. I am likely to move from 12th to top 5 on basis of 400+ points scored in this match.

It is in fact 208 not 308 which puts me in next to last place. The spirit of George Washington forced me into drawing mike's attention to this.

Washington has a lot to answer for.

And the history student in me is also obliged to point out that Washington was also a slave-owner who justified his position on more than one occasion during the American War of Independence....

But you are right, and as you cannot tell a lie, the correction has been made:

You break it and I choose.

Hope is in the confectionery spot now though.

A battling innings from Woakes and Root brings me to 8th place,

I.m struggling with a diet.

looks tight at the top.

I haven't been at the top of a leaderboard for what seems like an age

it surely won't last

I thought Root and Roy had done pretty well, and that Moeen had picked up a fair few points as well - Bishoo did pretty well as well and I think Stokes chipped in with the ball as well - others must have picked some pretty strong sides considering that I'm still close to the bottom of the table!
