yeah, I wondered too. Ockers have it right - win toss, bat.

9 tight overs undone within 4 balls by Cdg

Because winning the toss and bowling is always a good idea..

@donsteppa I wasn't - but, they should have picked him instead of de Grandhomme. We've got someone who can bowl 150 kph, but why choose him when you can have CDGH dribble in at 125 kph?
Pakistanis really did us no favours giving Colin six wickets in his first innings.

When you win the toss you always bat. Unless the wickets green, it's overcast and all the conditions are great for bowling. In which case you think about it then bat.
Steve Waugh, I think ...
I though it was one of the Marsh brothers or maybe Border but it was before Steve Waugh.

A quick google shows it W G Grace. But I am sceptical

@hooroo probably ... I credit Steve Waugh with everything
He would have just made it cooler....

@majorrage this
CdG is fucking shit, and it's an embarrassment he's bowling first change. And if he's first change, why the fuck do you bowl first??
-
@mariner4life dunno ... but it's 11:10pm and I'm bored shitless and debating chucking it in.
Forgot how boring test cricket is when it's your only focus

Looks like James Blunt in the crowd
The way the games going so far perhaps he'd be more entertaining?
I hate James Blunt.
Not as much as Ed Sheeran but.

@majorrage the Ashes thread shows why non-cricket people battle with test cricket. Every summer the test threads devolve from talking about the game to making up bullshit arbitrary XIs and arguing about the same bullshit. And then MN5 will start talking about all rounders and flogging himself over Chris Cairns' hairy chest. Every summer. Same shit.
