Hmmmm.

It's all Isha Guha's fault.

Don't forget Alison Mitchell. We hadn't lost a test at Edgbaston for 11 years until these two clowns started commentating.

Still - a slight improvement on the last time the Aussies won at Edgbaston in 2001 by an innings and 118 runs

 

[villasince67]

9 wickets down in the second innings for 86 runs

Good game in the T20 Blast on now - Middlesex v Surrey.

Middlesex got to 210 with some power hitting from Eoin Morgan and AB de Villiers. Surrey currently 69-1 off 7 overs with Aaron Finch and Sam Curran threatening to cut loose.

Erm yep, scratch that. Both out and Surrey need 90 from 44 - ain't gonna happen.

Forecast is looking pretty awful for the 2nd test.

Thank goodness. We may avoid defeat at Lord's for once

 

[The Fear]

That's the spirit! LOL

On a side note, I'm going to miss David Gower when Sky get rid of him at the end of the Ashes.

A top drawer broadcaster, love his laid-back style and the fact he doesn't go over the top about everything. Much as I also like Nasser, for instance, he does tend to deal in hyperbole and absolutes, which does grate after a while.

Yeah given the Aussies record at Lords. This test being rained off may be a blessing. 2 nil down and it's gone.

 

[sirdennis]

Yes. That's a shame.

I am actually coming out of retirement to play a game in September.

England.

 

[The Fear]

Settling a bit now, but once again disappointing from Roy and Root.

 

[JuanPabloAngel]

I do like Jason Roy but he is not doing much to remove the impression he is a white ball player.

Good work from Burns and Denly to steady things.

 

[astonion2]

England.
