I don't give a toss about the pitch and how easy it is to bat on. Fact is that no team in the history of test cricket has consistently scored at such a fast run rate as England have since the start of last summer. Plenty of other teams will have gotten 400-odd for 3 on this pitch but none will have done it in just 60-odd overs.

I think the highest ever on day 1 of any test match was 494, should piss that

Be disappointed if it’s not 500+

If we piss 494 mate I reckon 500 will be ok

0 for 30 after 2 overs bowling, in a Test match, lol

Scoring at 6.75 per over.

Ridiculous

Flat wicket or not, 450 in less than 70 overs is ridiculous.

Somewhere in Yorkshire Geoffrey Boycott is going mental right now.....

Forgot this started today. When I saw the score, I thought I’d missed another day as well!
