    But to hit 325 not out takes a hell of a lot of skill, determination and stamina. Tell me, how many other have hit triple centuries against the same attack?

    so you are happy that many millions of people voted for a party that gets next to no representation in the House? it's utterly wrong. it's anti democracy.

    You're very welcome to go there then. I've had people complaining for ages that it's about time we stopped talking about the election on here, so I have asked everyone to stop. You obviously didn't see my post, but that's it now.

    So if I complain about marmite, will people stop talking about it? :p I won't talk politics any more but I don't see why it can't be brought up if something happens that affects the country (i.e. the EU referendum that's going to happen). This is an off topic thread after all and people debate on different topics. That's what makes this such a good thread. The topics on here will vary depending on what's going on in the real world (i.e the election). People like to debate these things. Some people may not like the subject but it will soon change. I understand the need to stop election talk now as it's happened but if something else political happens I don't see why I can't bring it up. Surely I can talk about what I like, within reason, on an off topic thread?

    Sounds fair enough. I know most people will be fine as long as we don't go on and on about any particular thing.

    Did you see the story where KP sent texts to certain SA players during England v SA slagging off Strauss?

    This thread related to KP getting back into the England team - imo a big knock against a poor 2nd Div attack does nothing to enhance his claim. However we all know KP is a class batsman and if it wasnt for his ego and disruptive antics he would never have been dropped in the first place ! The ECB are usually a bumbling management team and i can see him getting reselected - i reckon there will further fireworks if so.
