This. Also shows other players that playing for us in a world cup year is not something to worry about. -
Covid Postponement CONFIRMED for Everton AND SOUTHAMPTON Games

I assumed it was a chainsaw -
Might as well have been from the decisions at the toss at the Gabba. As Michael Vaughan said on commentary, Silverwood and his team of technicians probably made the decision in July that if they won the toss they would bat first, not do something stupid like Nasser Hussain (or Cummins at the MCG) and bowl first, using your best bowler on a green top. Can't see Root wanting to continue as captain, and cannot understand why if Silverwood continues as coach, selector, etc for any future tours.

I think that was one of the first films I saw at the cinema. I think they had a replica of the car outside. Shows how old I am.

Fuck's sake. Not finished until tomorrow midday but then off until 4 January, which will come round quicker for me that you twats.

Who would have thought Xisco could trap a cross-field ball and make a defence-splitting pass within a few seconds.

Mainly because they had a top three who could bat and you would not be surprised if they made it to lunch on the first day of the first test. Now you are surprised if they make it through the first couple of overs.

Not sure how Silverwood survives this. He has almost complete control, is a former (journeyman) fast bowler, but still persists with picking the same sort of bowlers bowling the wrong lengths, and picking batsmen who simply aren't good enough. The latter is probably more to do with the passion for white ball cricket, which means that they don't get enough practice for red ball, so I blame Ashley Giles as well. Frankly, AG is probably responsible for CS, so he takes the blame for the lot. I doubt that CS would have been coach, selector, etc if Strauss was still head honcho. Clearly we need a good spinner, but Championship pitches are not designed for spin, and so they don't get picked. I heard that Leach has hardly bowled at all since India, not that any other spinner has done either. Fuck it - thought it would be 5-0 but hoped that we may be competitive from time to time and that the weather might intervene. Looks like my first thought will stand.
