Woakes will make way I’d imagine

England are doing pretty well under his captaincy. Crawley with his maiden test century and Buttler scoring well. 303 - 4

It’s wasn’t Surrey we were playing Tom............

Match drawn.

Oh.....I get it now Tom. It was top quality irony but clearly lost on me............

Our top scientists say that wearing a face mask protects others from you so if everyone wore a mask we would all be safer. The other difficulty in a football stadium is touching surfaces, particularly hand rails. Not sure how that issue would be overcome.

It’s a logistical nightmare to implement social distancing at a football match. Even with gaps between each seat there’d still be those sat behind and below you It would safer if everyone wore masks throughout the entire match day experience and not just when using the toilets.

Not according to Jimmy himself. Close to 600 test wickets and still bowling at 83mph+ and still swinging it.

I think we all would Tom. Anderson has said quite recently in fact that he wants to play Test Cricket for as long as he can so it’ll be interesting to see what he’ll have to say today.

You really don’t’ t like them do you..................

Woakes a five for.........it’s almost over.

6am flight back to the Caribbean. Bet they can hardly wait?

Sky cricket didn’t mention that.

Anderson’s record abroad is nowhere near as impressive as it is in England - something Sky Sport cricket have referred to when looking at the next Ashes in Oz. Broads record isn’t that good overseas either.

They’ve been world class for several tears Tom. Anderson whacking it down at 85mph at aged 37 is truly remarkable and Broad since he upped his length has just got better and better.

That’s true and accommodating that type of season card holders along with all the others will take quite some planning. It’s a logistical nightmare.

If the restrictions are lifted enough to allow socially distancing within AG I guess SC holders Would get first priority. I wouldn’t mind simply having two empty seats either side.The row above maybe three rows further up and the row below three rows apart. It could certainly be done with the right planning in place.

What tannoy?................

No not great like Stokes was but decent enough. Tied up one end and allowed the seamers to toil away. I think it was Keys who said that Bess should have been bowling from the other end to utilise the footmarks and that’s eventually where he took the final wicket from.

I hadn’t really noticed that. Bess did pretty well tho and wouldn’t deserve to left out of the third test.

What does Leach bring ahead of Bess? I can’t see that there’s much between them.

Good performance from England who win by 113 runs. Series 1-1. Stokes was superb. Has to be MoM.

30 overs left. 3 more wickets to win

The 2005 Edgbaston ashes test is on Sky right now. It’s almost as nerve wracking as it was first time around. The best and most thrilling test match I’ve ever seen.

Amazing!
