4th test Manchester

[Steak Pie]

That sounds ideal we’ll go with that I think. Cheers pal.

I'll send you a postcode later for your sat nav.

 

[brandon]

Don’t see the point in getting Broad or Anderson padded up.

I agree.

 

[Hetty]

Hover cover broken

 

[Steak Pie]

Raining a decent amount,

 

[stapler]

I know, that was exactly the point I was making in response to the suggestion that we could/would declare one minute before the end of the luncheon interval.

But the ten minutes IS in a manner of speaking about allowing them time to get their pads on.

Sorry, I misunderstood. I thought you were saying the Aussies would take their time.

 

[Brett]

Sure we declare now

 

[GordonMuchallNo1Fan]

test cricket and the hover cover is knackered.

 

[Steak Pie]

I the queue for a bottle if wine, its getting heavier.

 

[EchoMan]

Hover cover broken

Lover hover cover

 

[chunkyshanhawk53]

Have they taken the sandpaper to the hover cover?

 

[Lo Ursem]

Declaration essential now

 

[PeteFTM]

Sure we declare now

Have to. It’s now England v Time.

190 lead could be enough, they aren’t going to be going for runs, it’s just if we can get 10 wickets

 

[Julio Mackemo]

Declaration essential now

This ^^^

Have to. It’s now England v Rain.

190 lead could be enough, they aren’t going to be going for runs, it’s just if we can get 10 wickets

tidied

They will, because every run over 190 is something we have to chase (more time)

Decent morning but this is a downer

the Open is an hour away and it’s bright and breezy there so hopefully that will arrive asap.

I reckon Stokes will declare if we are 200 ahead or if this rain delay lasts longer possibly as soon as play is ready to start

 

[Steak Pie]

Pretty much stopped.

 

[LJP1786]

Pretty much stopped.

Good news from the local correspondent

Wouldn’t wanna hang around too much long without declaring. 3-4 overs max and get them in.

 

[Inside Forward]

Un-f***ing-believable.

 

[GordonMuchallNo1Fan]

absolute farce this.

get on with it ffs

 

[dark destroyer]

Blast blast blast !
That will do for starters
