    just listened to the the king of spain interview, he was very emotional but sounded more like a politician quoting stats based on the previous leadership and putting a positive "spin" on it on how good we are apart from a few countries, **** me, test matches are the pinnacle for any cricketer, until they start matching franchise wages we're fecked

    Bangladesh about to win a test in New Zealand. Great to see. Hope more countries keep improving at test cricket and pull off shocks. South Africa doing alright against India too. Look like they have found yet another talented young fast bowler with Marco Jansen.

    NZ lost to Bangladesh, we appear superb on this news and no doubt the hierarchy will blend this news in after a 4-0 loss to cover up how **** we are

    Don't you mean king of bull **** :D. He can be as emotional as he wants but the book stops with him. Let's not forget this is the guy who was previously sacked as England one day coach. How the **** did he become ECB director of cricket...

    watched a fair few hours of this series on fox sports, cannot believe how polite and unbiased their comm team is, yes MV is there too,
    or is it just not the same without the old sky team?

    Play goes on until 8.00 this morning and to be fair, there doesn’t show any evidence that we’ll get wickets.

    It's no wonder the Americans don't like cricket. Everyone knows the old adage that you can play for 5 days and still no one wins. But this is even worse, we've already lost and we're still continuing to play!

    Not sure if anyone has caught any of the SA vs IND test at the Wanderers but it’s been superb viewing so far. Should be a cracking final day starting at 8am tomorrow.

    watched a few hours earlier, think it was jansen & shami where it got heated, should be a decent last day, nicely poised for either team to win
    SA must fancy it but a few early wickets you never know

    Not a bad first day for England! Hope I haven't put the mockers on them now! If we can get Smith early on Day 2 then who knows!!

    Due to start 11 pm our time to make up for lost time. Mad that local time it starts at 10 am. Couldn't imagine a test match over here ever being that early.
