Looks a good score for England in the end. If the pitch deteriorates.

You're a secret Aussie then, as me, yorker and Aidan only got six?


GJ got 9...


And he's half Scottish.



Dare I ask which which half?

Too attacking. Needs to bowl dry.

Captain Steely's back now.

Not heard he's injured. Maybe a farming accident as he's not been playing much.

30m is a bit long for advice from the coach.

Good point. Buttler will be telling him about the record.

OK, i've got my cup of tea, and waking up.

Great score by England and as England did the Aussie batters are riding their luck.

Arms rapped up in ice so typing is awkward

Read the weather report and it would appear this is a 4 day match.
