3 for Stokes now!

Amazing how Tredwell can get a game for England when he isn't even the first choice spinner for an average second division side.

[dan08]

59 all out.

[mikesiva]

SKN 59 all out in 26.3 overs as Berridge is trapped lbw by Tredwell in his first over. Not much of a workout by the English bowlers.

Moores wont have had much laptop time with that one.

[Arthur Crabtree]

England have said that they don't intend giving everyone a game prior to the Test.

Lyth
Bairstow
Plunkett
Wood

A very northern bench.

[Arthur Crabtree]

Could be a result in this game.

[Aidan11]

Moores has already ordered the champagne.

[Aidan11]

Cautious start by England....well mainly Cook.

8/0 off 4 overs. Cricinfo is way behind.

[Aidan11]

45/0 after 14 overs.

Cook 30*, Trott 12*

Just 14 behind now.

I see that Cook takes his stance with both feet outside leg then move acroos to end up with both legs covering the stumps. Look forward to seeing how that works against NZ and the Aussies or any decent quick bowler. From what I've seen these quicks are not very good bowling to Left hand bats but better to Trott.

[hopeforthebest]

In fact Cook is batting a little like Chaderpaul only starting off with a less open stance. He's scoring well because the bowlers are too short allowing him to cut and pull a lot of deliveries.

[Arthur Crabtree]

Maybe setting him up for the Tests.

[Arthur Crabtree]

108-0. Time to retire out?

[Aidan11]

Only a two-day game so they need to let someone have a bat soon.
