****ing hell this is all going very well!!

India 83 behind with only 3 wickets left! (Jordan just got one overturned for bowling a no ball <doh>)

I don't understand why if you're not allowed to use DRS, you are allow to check a no ball for a wicket but there we go.

Still, 3 more wickets and we could very well win by an innings here.
 
Run out!

Suicidal running for the 2nd

2 more to go and their number 11 is a proper number 11. Even I could do better job than him so he won't last long if you bowl it straight #nojinx
 
And it's all over!

Jordan, Yorker, number 11 no chance

Win by and innings and 54 runs inside 3 days!
 
That was incredible. I got back from the Natural History Museum and it was all over.

Lancs need to beat Durham in the 4 day match starting on Friday to have any chance of avoiding relegation.
 
I was trying to find out what the current score was on Monday morning. Took me a while to find that the test had already finished!

More of the same from tomorrow, please.

Not long until hostilities resume. Stuart Broad looks a pretty picture. Remember when Gatting got the same off the Windies. He was being interviewed a couple of days after, looking like a giant panda <laugh> The interviewer asked him where the ball hit him, the ****ing blend.

A few years back, I went to a day at a test against Sri Lanka. I was meeting my old business partner there. I was pissed as usual and went to the posh refreshments area as good tickets were cheap for the match. Mike Gatting was doing PR for N Power. I went over to talk to him. Really, really nice guy. Chatting to him, it came out that he's a Liverpool supporter. I asked him for an autograph and he said he'd sign my ticket - if I had one <laugh> Walking away, I turned back to him. He looked up and I said "Where did it hit you again, Mike?". His smiling response was "**** off". True story <laugh>
 
Jordan picking up 2 more!!

Wish I had worked from home today like I was thinking about doing!
