Did I hear that Brook has scored more runs in his first nine Test matches than any batter in history? That’s some achievement. And he seems unbelievably level headed.
Some prospect we have there.

Watching womens T20... some good stuff going on, but the fielding randomly excellent, or awful.

Cant say I wanted the England women to win after that horrendous display by Catherine Sciver-Blunt

Just saw the highlights of Brooks’ innings, unbelievable batting that made a quick scoring Root look pedestrian. He makes batting look so easy, really hope he can do this against better bowling but he did it last night on one of the greenest pitches you’ll ever see, admittedly with a weak attack.

Yet it also says one of the bowlers took 4-14.
Obviously they were talking about the ‘other’ game played on the day…but it’s shoddy reporting

England in danger of paying the price for enforcing the follow on, felt a strange decision at the time and looks worse now, that said they'll fancy they chase down whatever New Zealand set them anyway
when did they change the laws that the batsmen not umpire gets the line on stumpings too?

Me and Mrs going to The Tailenders (podcast) Live at the London Palladium next Thursday. Greg James and Jimmy Anderson, mainly.
I’m Ok about cricket, played a bit and not a bad wicketkeeper, and can enjoy tests, but I can’t say I’m the greatset follower of the game and I’ve never listened to the podcast (though will give it a listen before Thursday). My Mrs knows diddy-squat about cricket. But we've got guest tickets so will probably be close to the stage and I‘m thinking it will be a laugh, more than just cricket banter, and maybe a bit of music…who knows.

Jimmy’s going to be a bit jet lagged.

As a long time listener to Tailenders, I suspect if you've not listened to it, you won't understand what's going on!
Go Well.

So be it…it’s a night out and it’s costing us nowt for our seats. £15 each return train fare and a late afternoon bite to eat. Always enjoy a day in London playing a sort of tourist.
