I too am actually looking forward to the World Cup (although it remains to see if the mind numbing group stages sap that enthusiasm)

It does go on a bit I grant you. I think you have to be selective in your viewing as all the decent teams make into the second round anyway

I think that bowling figures against the West Indies these days need to be discounted, the same way - and for the same reason - that figures against Bangla Desh are discounted. WI is scarcely (or barely) a Test-standard team, now.

I fear Oink is correct & Cook will appear over cautious in his declaration, although to be fair Jimmy has been distracted, Jordan (catching aside) and Stokes are not doing much and Broad has been relatively innocuous.

What do Lyth, Rashid and Plunkett have to do to get a game out there?
Broad bowling his medium fast filth....again, but this time in favorable conditions. <sigh>

Re: Cricket
Broad needs to go back to county cricket and prove himself because he looks very down on pace and accuracy. We're going to get slaughtered in the Ashes with this lot.

I can't imagine there being anything worth starting on a Friday so if I go in to work pretty early I should be able to start watching as they come back from lunch and then I'll take the afternoon off.
