I'm a bit worried about future contracts if I use that as my excuse.

I'll provide you with an excuse in the morning. Something to do with my colleague for this first Test, Thiruvananthapuram Global Communications. A money transfer from his aunt in Boston didn't come through and he had maths homework. Tomorrow is another day, however.


All revenue streams intact and patent and young Sachin is very sorry about the delay. A lot of very low scores here and anyone with three of Ashwin, King Kohli, JB1 and Gentle Ben is going to be at the top end and can anticipate their special executive club offers. Anyone with three of JB2, Rahane, Captain Steely and VJ can start looking forward to the England v Sri Lanka FL this winter. Here are the scores.



Kohli...260
Ashwin...205
Stokes...169
Ishant...168
Bairstow...168
Root...104
Anderson...100
Rashid...91
Broad...70
Umesh...67
Jennings...60
Pandya...55
Karthik...50
Rahul...37
Rahane...27
Vijay...26
Cook...23
Buttler...1

DNP: Moeen, Pujara, Kuldeep, Jadeja.

In your presentation packs you will notice your golden challenge cards which allow you to query the scores detailed above. Please contact me with your complaints. All communication is recorded for training purposes.

Your results from the first Test in Birmingham to follow this afternoon.

India is the cricket and economic powerhouse of our day and it is no surprise that it is from that resplendent nation that we should draw our sponsors for one of the world's most anticipated fantasy leagues. No, not from India's world class betting syndicates. Or from its magnificent governing cricket body, the globally renowned BCCI. Or its superb banks. None of these elected to take up any of the association packages on offer. So I forced to look to the real India. An email to Narela Pashminas paid dividends and affirms the importance of face to face business connections even in this digital age.

They still remembered me, 20 years after I touched down in New Delhi for the first time, so astounding was the mark up paid for one of their quality, handmade shawls after the owner's brothers taxi kindly dropped me off there, even though I asked for Connaught Place. Today I can offer all FL members a 10% discount on that price (plus a variety of taxes). Just forward your name and bank details. A treat for these sunny summer days.


Well done BFL, Durham and Ian for the 800+ scores. A bit to do for DD. Thanks for waiting, and I'll be in touch after the iconic Lord's Test. Bye.


BFL...838
Durham...803
Ian...801

Arthur...774
Redjr...770
Al...770
Prof...739
GG...706

Adi...699
Mike...682
Red...669

Alfie...564
Doc...528
Andy...526

DD...324

You're just an Umesh Yadav six-fer away from the lead Adi.

As the old phrase goes, you can't win the FL after the first Test, but you can lose it. I fully expect to see the Adi dance by the Oval.

Umesh Yadav could be replaced tomorrow. In that case i will get Stuart Broad.
