I saw this one from Nick Hoult which is also excellent -

'England have a bloke batting at three who likes to bat four, a bloke batting four who likes to bat five, a bloke batting five who likes to bat six, a bloke batting six who was picked as a specialist no 7 and a no 7 who scored 219 last week batting at no 3'

You couldn't make it up really could you  :D

Did anyone see the footage of Kumar Dharmasena standing to umpire at the England nets? Does anyone know if there's a reason for that? Is it like an umpiring warm up?

Jennings clueless with that.
Cook won’t survive too long here either. Can see England 4 down before lunch in these conditions

well I think it’s fair to say if Jennings doesn’t get a score in the second innings then that could  be the end of him

Jennings has got to go. we keep avoiding the problem

we need the best available top order batsman with proven class.

if that means having Bell back for 12 months lets do it

Root extremely lucky with that no ball call. Might be a game changer

I don't think many  left handers  could have played the one that got Jennings 80 mph and swings in.

Yep Root done  by the length ball swiong in late
Winning the toss and batting  a poor decision especially in the conditions

Agreed - with what Kohli said at the toss, he was relieved England didn’t stick them in. Cook looking slightly more solid
