I got something wrong over the catches last time I did this....

lots of people picked Root, SP, including you

not me, though, sadly, so that'll send me towards the bottom of the table

OK, this is what I've got for ya. Scoreboard thanks to the BBC.

Alfie...711

Sussex...654
Arthur...635
Diligent...609

Durham...589
Twins...583
Junior...567
GJ...539
Red...538
'fluffy...536
Andy...525
Gingerpele...524

Mike...476

So like the very Ashes themselves, the leadership resides temporarily down under. But like the actual battle for the famous old urn, the advantage is slender.

Polite disagreements, constructive criticism and unwarranted tantrums to the usual offices please.

Next time, it's the Lord's Test starting on June 28.

Bye.

Yes, your trump card.

Which reminds me, I had a joker feature last time. I thought that worked OK.

I'd forgotten that

I think I accidentally ended up with Root because I forgot to nominate one and he was 3rd in my team or something. It must have gone okay because I won it.... all thanks to my incompetence

It was England v NZ last year. Red won it. Nearly everyone picked Root or Stokes.
