Good man KB.

For a moment I thought I was in Ianrobo's chatroom.

Keep them out there for a bit longer, give the pitch a chance to at least flatten out a bit.

This goes completely against the grain, but I'd like to see them stop out there for a bit.

Post 120-140.  Another rain delay and that would be close to ideal.

With the ball still moving about I'd be quite happy for our openers to face less than 10 overs today.

And really stick the knife in tomorrow.

I see your point, just can't see them sticking around for too long.

Very true.

But if the close of play Today sees England 3/4 down then what's the point.

That might be my own cynical outlook, I don't necessarily expect everyone to agree.

Didn't Pakistan get these mugs out for a similar first innings score and still go on to lose?

Obviously England aren't as beholden to bookmakers as Pakistan are*

But still.

All out for less than 100.

Great to see Ponting, Mr Cricket and Haddin go for fcuk all.

Pitch, or piss poor batting?

Brilliant. Just need to ne cautious tonight. Nothing silly, another heavy roller in the morning and make hay. 300 wins us the game I reckon.
