Just got SPark today and watching the 51 minute extended highlights. Well done Spark, good work.
Whoever commented on Conway's bat sound was spot on - it's weirdly metallic. Williamson's also sounds weird though... not sure what's up with that
I thought they all sounded a bit weird off the bat in that first session. On a couple of deliveries it almost sounded like the stumps had been hit.

I agree so far... will let you know in half an hour what sessions 2 and 3 sound like

Other than 20/20, our domestic cricket isn't really at a standard that lends itself to automatically believing that top performers translate to international cricket. If someone isn't performing at all or is injured, fine, but if the performance is more at a level of not great than terrible, it's hard to use that to justify dropping someone. Form is temporary, class is permanent and all that.

Near perfect conditions for batting today. But rain now expected in St John's Wood tomorrow.

crikey! Conway brings up his ton with a golf shot 6! Wow, what a way to go.
To the manner born!
Iโm sure that he is very polite.

The more I think about it the more I appreciate Nicholls innings. The English were buggered at the end and got nothing out of the new ball. Perfect batting to set the foundations of a big first innings - possibly the key indicator for test success.
Pitch looks good to bat on though

Tbh , I think Ross is shot. All I hope from him now is a 20 cameo. We would be stronger with Young or Ravindra. I'm not demanding change, and the 2 I mentioned aren't banging the door down with Conway-like numbers. So, we roll on. But...
Ross is toward the end, not as good as his peak, but experience counts.
Hansen repeatedly told us that - until he abandoned it in 2019 - when he lost.
This cricket world championship match is going to be a lot about who keeps their nerve.
I'm backing Rossco. And, I'm backing our boys.
We've missed out before lads and we'll cope if we miss out again.Those Indians wo n't.
Smack 'em!!!
Sign off with a hundred Ross - Go Boy!!!!

Manor born is a pun derived from the above. But I'm sure you knew that.
