Think he took over from Stokes because of injury rather than suspension, GP.Quote:

1 down already.
Have we won a toss this series
So, the best opening partnership for either side in the series has ended at 27. What odds on that statistic lasting until the match is over after two more opening stands?
On a related note, I imagine I will be seeing another 100 from Smith tomorrow
At lunch your suggestion about Smith tomorrow looked decidedly pessimistic. Four hours on...I suspect you may be right.Quote:

Butler has given us something, game on
Buttler finish off his hundred tomorrow morning as w get 350; Broad gets Warner for nothing, Archer clean up Smith and Sam Curran cleans them out for 175. England have 5 overs to survive in the evening, and end on 4 for 3!
or
2 overs finishes off our innings for 275, Australia end the day on 327-2, with the sandpaper boys notching up 100's
You may as well stay in bed GP, I'll have you're ticket if you like
Yep...thank goodness for Buttler...and Leach again!Quote:

What are the chances of GP’s long awaited Oval trip coinciding with a Steve Smith duck?
A collectors item, but you never know!
No. It sems the Aussies are simply faster...... ;)Quote:
