but I suspect I’m only enjoying it because it is a form of live cricket on terrestrial TV and with sod all on, I’m watching it.
i don’t get the 5 ball overs, nor do the commentators as they have to keep correcting themselves. Sorry, I mean “set of 5”
Some of the games have actually been appalling.
Anyway, the test squad looks to be full strength with the exception of Woakes and Archer who are both injured.
i think Sibley will play first test and then Hameed, depending on Sibley’s form, will get a game at some point in the series.

I can’t believe this won’t end badly.
normal cricket crowds include people who watch what’s going on, track the ball and potentially are able to catch it
but the demographics are different, and even a dropped cricket ball onto the head of a kid in the row below doesn’t bear thinking about
comes from a recurring nightmare I still have from about 40 years ago playing cricket on a proper pitch in a park in London, and watching the batsman slog one to square leg where there was a woman pushing a pram in the path. Came down from a massive height and missed the pram by a foot
This will allow 5 dedicated batsman + 4 dedicated bowlers (Root a few overs if required ) with Jos/Sam at 6/7
Need to find a way to get Foakes in if he's fit. No good having Buttler or Bairstow dropping catches and missing stumpings.
Stuckfast said: I think Curran offers something a bit different to a 4 man attack (assuming 3 pace + 1 spin or indeed 4 pace) - Agree he is not a main line bowler if you only had a 4 man attack - But in that all rounder role he is more than useful with the ball and bat - Last time India toured he was arguably our best player
Can't recall when he had so many places up for grabs - With only Root, Butler, Anderson, Broad guaranteed places
Otherwise I can't see who has nailed down a slot - I'd go with Sam Curran at 7 in the all rounders role (Butler to bat at 6) so pick 4 other batsman to go with Root - Pick 2 other bowlers to go with Anderson/Broad
And he'll make rough for Ashwin to bowl into!
Oh bollocks, Burns LBW in the first over.
The schedule is insane this summer. It's no sort of preparation for the Ashes. We are going to get royally thumped.
We'll be bowling tonight at this rate.
