If anything, there's been too many changes

We will go to the windies and do well

Then we will have a good summer...but until we get a couple of reliable openers, we have a problem

It's gone on too long

West indies are shite

We will do ok in English conditions in the summer (Nothing special)

It will all be forgotten and the ECB will move onto more of the hundred and other box ticking shit πŸ‘

test cricket is a dull outdtated version of the game

much more excitment in the forms were actually good at

scrap the test shite

Nearly 70,000 at the MCG the other day. There would have been 25,000 England fans there also if they had been allowed to travel. You’re Β entitled to your opinion but crowd numbers would suggest your wrong. I’ll be at the SCG and Hobart for 4 days each (if they make it to 4) Still looking forward to them though despite the last couple of weeks.Β

I wasn’t planning on being up to watch it, but a refreshing change.

Sounds like plenty of Brits in the ground and some value for you.Β

Yep. Went to the pub at lunch and considered not going back. Glad we did. Great afternoon and evening sessions. Small wins but very welcome. πŸ‘

Fifth day. Well, well. Had other plans but we’ll have to go again. You never know.🀞

Fingers crossed for you.

Forecast is a bit mixed they said this morning, so I doubt there's time enough for an England win. (Putting aside the quality question).

Well at least it won’t be 5-0. Small slice of satisfaction. Sends them to Hobart with a bit more confidence

You'll need to use a microscope to see that confidence. We were yet again a distant second in that match. Be glad when the series is over if I'm honest.

Been here before with Buttler. May have a decent forthcoming season and be OK again.

Never had the required level of consistency in test matches for me, which is a shame becasue he's a talent.

I think I believe in him more than he does

So confident in the one day format.Β 

Perhaps he should just stick with that.

He looks so glum playing tests.

I do think he can do it, but I’m not sure he does.

πŸ˜ŠπŸ‘ Hobart next.

Just thought I'd check as it came as a surprise to me..

You're supposed to get a PCR test 72 hours before travelling to Tas. Proof of negative test apparently not required but guess they may do random checks.Β 

I'm travelling (via ferry) on 16th so may make Day 4. In this series I'm not banking on it lasting that long πŸ˜†
