Old Trafford Lancashire C.C.C. (Greater Manchester) weather
Old Trafford Lancashire C.C.C. 7 day weather forecast including weather warnings, temperature, rain, wind, visibility, humidity and UV
50% chance of rain in the morning session but should be clear after that. Saturday will be almost certainly be rained out entirely. Some showers around on Sunday but nothing heavy.
I think there are probably 5 sessions left in this game.
England will probably bat for most of another session to try and get a 200+ lead.
Then they have to bowl Australia out in three and half session for less than 270 odd, I guess, to be a position to win this.

Good news, initially they were banking on three days solid rain weren’t they ?

Best day eva!!!!!
Probably too little too late though with the weather. I think England will go for 200 more runs in a session tomorrow, likely get skittled for much less and then hopefully have enough sessions to have a real crack at Aussie.
Didn't get to watch much today unfortunately (thrashed the old man at golf though, so can't complain) and tomorrow I'm at the cricket club for a tournament, so fingers crossed they have something sorted.

Even more so, that they went in without a spinner.
So, send out the spin bowling coach . .. to to do the EOD presser.

Didn't get to see a ball bolted live as work got in the way - I need a better work/life balance I think. Had a look at the highlights though and it looked as though the Aus fielding (Khawaja's catch aside) was bit ordinary? Root was undone but a nasty one when he looked in good nick which was a shame.
I did like the way the Aussie's congratulated Crawley when he was out. A classy response. Ollie Robinson take note.
-
@Catogrande There definitely was some shoddy fielding - Cummins leading the way who put down Ali before Khawaja's catch.
The field placings were just weird - very reactionary/half pie.

Bat until lunch and then scuttle the Aussies out before the rain
-
@NTA to be fair, his back foot was in the shadow, so worth a look (and a boo 😉)

Declare ffs
