that's an astonishing innings.

good to have another look at Ball and Sam Curran before WC and with series won

Just shows how good this squad is atm. Pick the side on the day. Swinging then Willey, if not one of the other quicks. Root has to stay Sometimes a couple of early wickets and he rebuilds the innings Averaging over 50.

Grandfather had been going since late 40s. My old man never got the bug so granddad took me up in 1974 for 1 st game and we went together every week until he became too ill to go in early 80s. Still think of him everytime I go. Took my girls until they got older. Hopefully will get the chance to...

whole mobile camera/video bewilders me. so many times serious incidents etc. and people whip out their mobiles to video it rather than helping. The Manchester bombing was one that springs to mind - how many people hung about videoing it for their media pages rather than either getting out...

i think he's a much improved player. His movement and spatial awareness is exceptional - ever improves his finishing and he could be right up there with the best

Poor reffing is allowing all sorts of nonsense that is contributing to a pretty poor standard of football all round. A lot of cynical stuff like diving, tactical fouls (like the swiss taking it in turns to kick Neymar), holding in the box, time wasting.

one by the football club. had a few nights in there when he was there. Natural pub guv with a good sense of humour & liked a wind-up. RIP Ernie

maybe it's just an indictment of Div 2 cricket when the top 2 sides look unlikely to make 200 runs in an innings.

seems a funny wicket with so many wickets on day one - satellite ground this game

This. We've got 3 quicks who are all susceptible to injury and 2 of them aren't that good anyway. At least get 1 or 2 quicks in for the experience eg Tom Curran, porter.

this is the difference between the one-day and the Test side. One day batsmen keep stepping up and saying "right try and drop me". I admit I was ready to give Hales some stick after his poor 12 month form.

Genuinely don't get it. This was one of the key things VAR was introduced for. Pre-tournament identified as a point of focus for officials. Think standard of reffing so far very average. Seen 3 or 4 sides take a very cynical approach which refs haven't coped with. Panama, Tunisia, Swiss to name...

Surely the actual system works it still remains the human element is liable to error. Still absolutely stunned that 1st Kane tackle cannot be seen as a stonewall penalty.

think Saints is a decent move for him. basically a decent club which tends to play its young players. add-ons etc. normally tend to be related to the first deal (ie. with Norwich) rather than rolling forward to the next buying club unless specifically stated. sell on %s relate to total value of...

somebody explain Billings to me.. Out of form in all forms of cricket this year. Rather go back to Vince just for one day cricket. There's a lot of other one day players that deserve a chance.

Appreciate there are a few U23s here but does look a big squad that needs thinning out a bit before being upgraded.

No reason why prison cannot rehabilitate or be a deterrent without being extreme. Community Work etc. May be okay for minor offences for non-repeat offenders but not for others. Regarding reoffending rates tend to show that rates fall with length of sentence. So make people serve larger % of...

For me the system is also failing when prisoners are let out early or convicted prisoners are not sent to jail where lack of available spaces is a key issue/excuse.
