[Cricket] First Ashes Test - England v Australia - Cardiff

[vegster]

England unchanged from last NZ Test... as expected, Finn and Rashid miss out.

Rogers and Watson in for Australia... Dad's Army out in full force

No worries for the old timers, Australia will be playing 4 day Tests.

Classic start - its raining

Raining - covers are on. Were drawer.

Stopped again - covers coming off. Were loose.

Who is all the pomp and circumstances for - red carpet - sponsorship boards - squads to stand on said carpets while the English!, Welsh and Australian national anthems are played.

I am sure the punters and watching fans want them to start playing cricket

 

[Titanic]

Do get on with it. This is embarrassing

Operatic version of Bowies 'Heroes' while the Army run around the ground with giant flags. It has already delayed the start

Anyone who watches W1A - this has Siobhan Sharpe all over it

Guys we totally nailed that shet.

 

[KZNSeagull]

Why? Just why? We should be 20-0 by now.

Is this an ECB thing or a Sky thing?

Start of play delayed to 11.15 due to having to clear the outfield off all the fireworks and crap.

Why not start all the W1A sheet at 10.30?

Joe Calzaghe's mate pissing around on his phone during the anthems ,no respect.
