Is that 2 drops for Crawley now on top of being shit at batting?

I like the way you guys find consolations in the midst of darkness!
Did you manage to have a good time at York Away by any chance?

I’m not. It’s a very rousing hymn when used properly.

It doesn’t have the same effect if used every day though.

First used in the 2005 Ashes series to spur them on to victory.

Using it on day 4 of a test that we’re 250 behind in probably won’t have the same effect.

Am I right in thinking that it used to be sung before Cup Final kick-off at the old Wembley?

Not really. We need over 300 in the 4th innings already.

Whilst it’s technically possible for us to smash them off in 60 overs again, I somehow doubt it will happen here.

Uneven bounce and they have a decent spinner too.

I was more meaning that there's a glimmer, whereas if the chase is 400, it would be all but impossible.

Of course an over of Broad to Bumrah, and they will be there anyway
