    I did RCL it <sorry>
    Great Test, great series. Could have gone either way. England should have got home from 301/3, although Siraj deserves a lot of credit for his bowling. On the other hand, India should have won by 200 runs; it was only fantastic knocks from Brook and Root which took England close in conditions still favouring the bowlers

    Great game. Was there yesterday and amazing atmosphere. Just really don't know why the ball started to swing after tea. Well done India.

    I can’t get into The Hundred. What is the point?
    Why not try to match the IPL and get a few more world stars over here if there is a need to write off August for a bish-bash comp at this time of year?
    The format is a one-off. It isn’t replicated anywhere else. It doesn’t add anything. Why not try to maximise the obvious appeal of the T20 format around the world?

    Livingstone smashed Rashid Khan everywhere.
    Six off the final ball to win the game tonight too.
    I still don’t see why it needs to be a different format (which nobody else plays). Makes it confusing at times. Why not just have a T20? You can still have franchise teams.

    Jordan Cox just phenomenal hitting. Invincibles destroy previous record with 226 from 100 balls! <yikes>

    Astonishing, brutal assault from Sam Curran. He scored 47 off the last 12 balls he faced!! <yikes>
