Light meter coming out, can someone read the umpires the rules about play shall not be stopped merely because the light is not ideal? Its 12:20, allow England to bring on medium pacers and spinners if they want to. Its drizzling but don't think they'd have gone off if it wasn't dark too.

This has to be one of the worst pitches in recent years.  A typical dire offering at the toilet bowl. 

Yep.......the pitch that was allocated to the second test where a ball wasn’t bowled was much more responsive to this one according to the Sky pundits

Incredible achievement. 600 test wickets the first seamer and only six deliveries more than spinner Murali

Truly remarkable.

And Jimmy would’ve got there sooner if it wasn’t for those four dollies being dropped. Proud moment.

There it is, against the best opposition player too. 

From the Guardian OBO, shows the magnitude of his achievement:

We celebrate the Fab Four that won the Ashes in 2005, and quite right too. They took 748 Test wickets between them; Anderson, an unhappy understudy in that series, has 600 on his own. It’s a bonkers achievement.

2.7m people watched the 20/20 match yesterday on BBC1.  Sky gets 500k viewers for same fixture.  

Good to hear, I know a lot of sky viewers deliberately watched on BBC instead. Having said that if BBC continue with Vaughan not sure how long I could continue to watch.
