Lancs clawed it back. Looking in excess of 200 for most of that.

Should be a cracking game this I make Lancs slight favourites

My last post on this year's Ashes

We will never learn, and until we stop playing the old boy clubs gang, Moeen Ali Bairstow Broad Anderson and Start to take Test cricket and the Ashes seriously then am OUT

Pundits in the media and tv blowing smoke up the people's arse about England and Bazball makes me laugh
I may be old school in my views but Test cricket and the Ashes are better and bigger than Bazball and England,

We are going to get whitewashed and then let's see Sky and the BBC Pundits back Bazball and Stokes and the England coaching staff

Fucking hell even for you this is a well over the top take on things, get a cup of camomile tea down you and calm down. If you are out as you say we won’t be seeing you on here for a while eh?

Not sure Bairstow’s in a position to be able to pull off too much sledging…

Yeah but it’s that cockroach Smith so it’s a win in my eyes.

I've never really been a Bairstow fan in test cricket but have to agree. His purple patch before his injury came as a surprise to me and I didn't think he had it in him. If he hadn't been picked for this Ashes series and we were still 2-0 down everybody would be questioning why he wasn't in the team. So you really can't win.

There's always been a question mark on his wicketkeeping going back a number of years. When he kept failing with the bat previously he was adamant that he wanted to keep hold of the gloves. Knowing full well his batting alone wasn't worthy of keeping a place in the test team.

Bairstow for me looks like he could lose at Least a stone in weight!

Narine is just a brainless batsmen. Just tries to slog everything. Very predictable.

Funnily enough I've always thought that mate and was going through my head today. I know there's exceptions to the rule but he hardly has an athletic and agile physique. Not going to be light on your feet carrying all that lard around. Actually annoys me. If a professional sportsman can't be arsed getting in shape what hope do us mere mortals have?
