I'm actually surprised how emotional I am about this. Never thought we'd see the day we actually have it back in our hands - a proper home. King's played a blinder - only a few weeks back he was putting out smokescreens about needing a our ownnew stadium

The man who ran on cleaning up FIFA's reputation and corruption following Blatter's time in charge.

Still not sure why people are so willing to believe any promise of support Trump makes for protecting Ukriane if the war is ended. NATO don't even seem to trust him to fulfil US's obligations if a member state is attacked.

Copying the Russians. take the territory even though nearly everyone is against you. Then you're negotiating from a position of strength. In a world where might is right it seems.

Taiwan should just surrender now.

Russians would have psychoanalysed Trump to the nth degree (not that there's much there) and gone in with a specific approach to capitalise on his weaknesses. Does seem to a character who is swayed by whoever the last person he talked to.

He likes their ability to be able to concentrate and consolidate power. Plus he also identifies with fellow sociopaths.

Irony is if the ECB & Sky had thrown the resources they have put into the hundred at the existing good T20 competition we propbably wouldn't be in this mess. T20 was a strong tournament that could have been developed further.

But they double it with a women's game so the "day" is much longer.

It's like when rugby sold a chunk of their media rights - it sorted short-term cashflow etc but now that crucial revenue stream has gone. ECB have sold a big chunk of their future revenue. IPL franchises are financially dominant in world cricket. If these owners don't get what they want they...

Always going to happen. Money talks. ECB just bumbling their way forward trying to survive financially. There will come a point where they have nothing left to sell.

If you can wait a little into the season- teams that start badly their ticket prices tend to plummet even for the holidays

absolutely threw that game away with sloppy cricket. Dropped catches cost them 152 runs. Bethell & Overton were poor picks from the beginning - not their fault (apart from Bethell unnecessarily charging a straight ball) as they just haven't played any red ball cricket. Highlights we need...

looked nervous as hell last night and no better this morning

That's the game. If the old ball is still playing like it was last night do India keep it and just try & use pressure to force wickets or gamble on the new ball. It's now either a great win for England or a game they've thrown away with sloppy catching etc

Problem is England fans will turn up pretty much regardless of the opposition. Indian Test crowds are well down as are Australian Test crowds against "smaller" teams. Our 2024 tour of India was mainly played at "smaller" venues rather than the main grounds because of lack of interest. South...

Can't talk directly to the player. So they talk with agents/3rd parties. Bit of a farce.

New ball at 80 overs. They're in the 76th now.

Going to depend on how the tail deal with the new ball. But it's still about mentality and heart. Smith has to stay in.

take the light and regroup. New ball just around the corner.
