Trott just hooked a blistering 6 Viv Richards style.

Blimey that's not like Trotty!

[Chris Jameson]

Until this week I'd forgotten how much I dislike Charles Colville, I'm amazed he's still in a job. You can tell anybody having the misfortune to share commentary duties with him thinks he's a prat, Dominic Cork can barely hide it.

Yorkshire 470/7.

100 partnership Trott and Gain

I've always liked him actually.

I dislike Hussain immensely, not a huge fan of Botham either. Atherton is probably the best summariser/commentator.

I don't watch cricket much on Sky so couldn't really comment on the others but I thought they had got rid of Colville years ago. He is a prat.

Atherton is my favourite Cricket journo too.

Your lot are wobbling Chris, might not make 500 now

Last time Root skippered us it didn't end well!

Colville is terrible, I'm not sure why there's just something grating about him.

I like most of the sky cricket team though, I really like Strauss when he does the third man stuff and I love it when they get Michael Holding in mainly because he has a voice made for broadcasting.

[DaveD]

Why are Yorkshire still batting (at less than 3/over) ?

[PaulWinch again]

Yeah I like the Sky team mostly, but Colville and Willis are irritating.

Hain (89) has overtaken Trott(88)
311 for 3
4s R Us #coyb

[paul_e]

Hain really is a special talent, he's had a phenomenal breakthrough season this year, this innings puts his average up well over 45 and he's closing in on 700 runs for the season, pretty impressive for a 18/19 year old.
