    Whoo hoo.

    Bairstow manages to catch a wide one to enable a stumping. 

    Only another 6 wickets to go.

    This thread's in the nervous nineties. I reckon we can all look forward to rasing out bat tomorrow and making it onto the honours board sometime before lunch.

    Massive next session (whenever it is). If England can bowl better, and restrict the Aussies to less than 430, then we have a chance.

    Surely we'll bowl better tomorrow?

    36 extras is ridiculous. Doubt the Aussies would let a total like that slip across two innings let alone one.

    get carey or smith out and i think we can rattle through them quite quickly. Lots of rain forecast for tomorrow, however. Might work in our favour.

    This thread will either dance down the pitch and jump straight to 104no with a 6, or get stumped.

    I’ve just walked by the, ‘We’re not pissed you know’ brigade coming out of Lords including a few wearing red trousers.

    I saw one old duffer;) being dealt with by the fuzz.

    I mean, you'd be mad not to go for Warne and Akram, but then choosing between Gower, Pietersen and Afridi is a tough one....

    So Reams is now forecasting the weather?

    I can't resist the previous generation, especially as they played more for Hampshire than more recent players

    Sorry but any team, any format, ever, you pick Warne.  If you can.  No ifs, no buts.

    Got to have Warne, Gower & Pietersen for starters. Then Marshall & Afridi.

    None of the 3 apps I use said rain/drizzle yesterday morning. BBC, met or iPhone. As I was sat there in the rain/drizzle.
