    To think that he poms are really 2/15 due to their deficit.
    Yes and no. Their two most dangerous batsmen are set and are capable of posting very big scores.

    Given our batting frailties, I'd have us underdogs, too.
    Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

      I think there's an expectation that Swann will give them the edge in the last innings. Besides live odds always take a long time to even out when the outsider gets ahead.

          Pieterson looking slightly more positive this morning. Cook still a wall of defence early.

                If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

                    What's a good target for us, 170-200?

                    Achievable?

                        Who knows with the way we bat.

                        England are finding it hard to score runs.

                          Cowan is a liability. Ordinary with the bat and worse in the field.

                              Is there a sport where former players comment on everything like Cricket?
