The forecast is very depressing. Be pleasantly surprised if we get any more play today unfortunately.

Plenty of gaps in the showers, optimistically hoping for half an hour now, then off for an hour, early tea and then dry to close....

Cricket is an odd game, when in many instances the result is strongly influenced by the toss of a coin.

You still have to perform, agreed, but Lady Luck has a major impact.

I don't think there should be a toss- except in the last match of an uneven rubber. Need to try and fine a way of evening up the choice.

Knowing who bats first before team selection does not work either. Maybe have a set toss, such as heads England first, tails India.

India playing 2 spinners may even this toss out come Monday...and it might not, of course.

Halfway through day 2 and we've only taken 3 wickets. Poor from England :nono:

Astonishing cock up on the run up and the apocalypse happening overhead.

Maybe they shat their pants when they saw that thing coming?

I wish we could see the 3 blokes singing football songs- expect they’ve been on the beer all day
