9/2 already
Over by lunchtime tomorrowOptimistic! Might not even get to stumps the way Boult is bowling.
Careful fellas. Similar bold predictions were thrown around last test before they dug in and saved it.
Mind you two whole days looks a bridge way too far.

Quite the change from mid-afternoon on Boxing Day...!!
Let’s hope that on Sunday we’re not saying, ‘quite the change from mid-afternoon on the 28th’.....

Sitting relaxing and watching with my oldest son, I was about his age when I got info cricket in a big way and this current BC team has enough heroes to get him excited if I teach him right.
He's taken a particular liking to Wagner cos he bowls fast and is left handed like Dad.

You don't think Shayne O'Connor or Murphy Su'a would have had the same appeal back in the day?

Luckily for me Paddles was at his peak when I started watching seriously.

Should give Patel a go against Matthews now - get him stretching that hamstring!
Kane needs to bowl more, I understand his gunshyness with the whole chucking thing but without Guppy there really isn't an effective out of the box option.

Barring a catastrophic loss of form he will retire our best batsman ever. He's also a reasonably ok spinner. Who cares if he's called for chucking every now and again? Surely he realises he's carrying the team as much as Paddles in his pomp?
