Wow. The only other time numbers 10 & 11 top scored in an innings was in 1885! What an effort by Leach and Mahmood.

With the way the ball is swinging, wouldn't it be great if we had the greatest ever England bowler playing, who is pretty good at swing bowling. Where is Jimmy Anderson.

I bet your friend had a little chuckle to himself when he walked past 10dm alley. Your friend`s been there as well, has he? I asked him, and he's harping on about something to do with the 5th Amendment.

You've just got to love watching Dan Lawrence bowl. He's like a human windmill! A bit like Paul ( frog in a blender ) Adams. South African spinner. It`s a wonder his rotator cuff didn`t rupture, every time he delivered the ball. Lawrence defies all known body, arm and leg movements when he bowls. I'm pretty sure there are some laws around Physics that would also baffle Einstein if he were still alive. I just smile watching it. I think it's fantastic

The pictures are in colour and there is sound as well ! Although when iFollow first started about three years ago (?) there was no commentary nor replays. The times, they have a changed. One thing hasn`t though. A few years back, a friend visited Hamburg for the first time since I he lived just south of there, 40 years ago.
In the evening, I he wandered through the red light district of the city. It was exactly as I he remembered it. Pedestrian walkway, with a barrier at either end. Didn`t half bring back some memories for me him.

Ah. We didn`t have that in BFPO 30.
Guess, it`s more advanced down in the American Zone.

f**k the play-off's. We are looking at automatic promotion. Watching this team is actually enjoyable. The young lad Elliot Anderson is something else, nicht wahr? I get disappointed when he passes to someone else. MOTM performance and a goal fit to win any game.
Edit: How do you manage to watch the games over there? Are BFBS still going strong?
I use iFollow.

Who is actually making decisions with this England team? There are a number of backroom staff and coaches. Just what do they do to help Joe Root? Or does Joe Root listen to the advice and then make a decision? Look back at the first test in the Ashes at Brisbane. England won the toss and elected to bat....on a cloudy day which was extremely bowler friendly. England bowled out cheaply. The next day the sun was shining and Australia cashed in. Didn't anyone in the England setup look at the weather forecast? Back to this test. The last time England were in the West Indies, Mark Wood bowled very very well. Yet England opened the bowling with Woakes, who has a pretty dire record in the WI's. Not only that, but England had Leach bowling after just nine overs! What on earth was that about?

They were talking about England facing the 'new ball'. What sorcery is this? Is it a new rule?

Against Bangladesh and Zimbabwe, Shaun Warne took just 17 wickets. Murali took 176 wickets against them. Warne was, without any shadow of a doubt, the greatest spinner ever.

Off the top of my head (and I may be wrong) but wasn't it Marsh who said to Botham, "How is the missus and my kids", to which Botham replied, "the wife is fine, the kids are retarded".

I thought it was a nervy performance. We struggled to create anything in the second half. The final ball into the box was very poor, especially the crossing. Plus, when we did put a good ball in there didn't seem to be anyone attacking it. It just looked like it needed a defensive mistake or something special to break the deadlock, and we got something special! However, sometimes you have to grind out result's, and at the moment it's result's that count not the performance.
Saturdays's game is now vital. Win that and we go above Newport with a game in hand. Looking at the table we are now in with a shout of automatic promotion. Momentum is vital, and at the moment we have it !

Well done Poland & Sweden. The games should not be played at a neutral venue. Russia should be kicked out. Shame on EUFA/FIFA for not doing so already. Russia should be barred from ALL international sport. FIFA / UEFA are fundamentally corrupt. Will be interesting to see if they put morals above money. Don't hold your breath. Not sure what political pressure can be put on them. If FIFA/EUFA will not do the right thing, then every country should refuse to play against Russia, and that should also apply at club level.

Bet he doesn't feel like a 16 year old ðŸ¤ðŸ˜‰ Twelve million quid. Got to be the most expensive sex act in history.
I once paid £3 and a packet of smoky bacon crisps, and I thought that was bad enough.
Edit: Huge queues have formed outside Buckingham Palace, following the news that Prince Andrew is giving away money to people he`s never met.
Three quid and a packet of crisps? What did the other bloke say about that!

So Essex are now in the firing line with rascist language spoken [allegedly] at a board meeting in 2017!!! ongoing ECB investigations will obviously get to the bottom of this and ..as Essex are not "one of the few" will get a hefty fine!! have to attend guidance classes set down by the ECB and severely warned about their future conduct!! You forgot to add that any letter sent to them from the ECB will be written in an harsh font.
