    Thats phenomenal value for an event as big as this. Think its £65 for a ticket when England play up at Durham. No concessions for kids either so same price for my 13 year old.

    My cousin's son got us tickets for Sydney and they cost us $175 each, so that's brilliant value.

    Agreed on the commentary.

    Mind, the pitch doesn't look like dynamite really. Starc was excellent, but they have done their work on the England batsmen. At least three of ours, Crawley, Brook and Stokes were got out to " plan".

    I think we looked to have spooked them a bit. Batsmen hopping about , getting hit and beat for pace. Very good lengths by England. Absolutely critical that and so often in the last we'd have been bowling halfway down on that wicket.

    Very interesting day coming up. Anything could happen .Hopefully we are going well when I get up at six!

    Hopefully that last wicket doesn’t wag, I’d personally pepper them with the short stuff

    Great picture of the two of you and what a day you must have had. That delivery from Wood when he nearly took Cam Green's head off <cool>

    Carse gets Lyon out and England lead by 40 runs. Working nights can help at times!

    Cheating bastards! No conclusive evidence that Jamie Smith got a knick to be caught but the 3rd umpire spent over 5 mins to give him out!

    Just turned the tv on and seen it’s the Aussies batting again. Did our batters collapse or something?

    Not necessarily. Some of them wait until you cark it first before trying to eat you.
