Excellent.Boy has gone over there for three weeks. If you spot a ging with an Eccleshall Cricket Club flag that'll be him.
Perfect start - need Smith now....Hopefully our bowlers will start the day refreshed and with renewed vigour ....
TBF it was quite even right up until the moment it wasn't.It's difficult to take many positives.
I think it fair to say that if you win the toss and put your opponents in to bat in the belief that you will subsequently bowl them all out for some sort of a minimal score of - what? 200? 250? 300? - not a lot anyway, and they subsequently declare because they have gotten so bored of batting against you at nearly 450 runs, you have made a 'monumental' error.Not sure "monumental" is the word. Maybe a bit of 20-20 hindsight being applied. (2. probably won't make much difference, and I can understand 1. to a certain extent.)
Cook has had four innings in two Tests thus far, scoring -... if Cook had put any feckin runs on the board - which he, at some stage in the tour, will.
