    England have said that they only want to bat once. If we knock these last 4 over, before, or just after lunch with a 200+ lead we've got a great chance of winning. I can see a scenario of England needing 100 to win off 20 overs on day 5.

    Depends on the time that we get them all out I think. If it’s during the morning session the England players are still fresh from their overnight rest. Therefore just carry on from 1 and 2 again and see if we can get them out again. If the Indian first innings lasts well into day four then a different decision is likely.

    Yeah, the weather's good as well. Tell the England team to bring it back with them 'cos it's freezing here lol :)

    4am is a bit early, but once I'm up and the kettle is on I really enjoy the first couple of hours just sat on my own watching the cricket and dreaming of the sunny weather.

    The only team more capable of buggering up an advantage than Barnsley FC is the England men's cricket side!

    Even to the point that we appear to have strength in depth enough to rest and rotate players but keep winning.

    Let's get these out before 300 nice and early. Get them back out before Lunch for another Innings. Just need 1 wicket to fall here and it'll be fairly simple to do so
