Re: Cricket
What a lovely morning of cricket. England are 279 for six at stumps on the first day of the third test It was nice and sunny at Lords, plenty of drama and Baristow getting his first Lords century. While I realize most don't have access to TV at work but I hope some of you at least got to listen to the TMS broadcast. What with the football on as well I can’t see much point of even going in tomorrow.

The match is nicely placed.
Compers though must be in last chance saloon. Shame, as I thought he would have made a good #3.

Anybody watch the carnage at Trent Bridge? Its been great although not a lot of work is getting done this morning. Sadly its not a Friday otherwise I'd follow the 2nd innings with a boozy lunch and make a day of it.

Re: Cricket
It ain't over until both sides have batted, but surely one can dare to hope Eng can defend the highest ODI total ever.
It's not even the highest 50ove score at Trent Bridge this year - Notts scored 445 & nearly lost

Well Northants made a pretty good fist of chasing 445 in 50 overs at TB this year....

I enjoyed Amir's little cameo at the end there.
