It's a realy open arena , sound doesn't travel as well

Must admit, I went to watch Oasis and Richard Ashcroft there a few decades ago and barely heard a thing of the music. Could only really hear the 200 or so people around me singing.

Never been back for a gig there the sound is so poor.

It’s been an excellent couple of days of cricket, going to be a real shame if England are scuppered by the weather.

I think they've almost removed that possibility now. If they pull this off within 3 days it'll be one of our greatest wins ever imo.

Are we saying 550-600 to not have to bat again?

Are we saying 550-600 and we might not have to bat again?

Wonder if a Declaration tonight is going through Stokes head knowing there's potentially Two full days ruined due to rain.

Yeah, make them try and beat our one-innings score through any rain breaks through the weekend - the rain might actually suit us.

I think get to 350-400 and start T20 batting. Declare around dinner tomorrow.

Doubt it might as well get the runs whilst the wicket is decent

This makes the most sense now they look like they're not going to put Australia in tonight.

Different level of time-wasting from the Aussies this.

Everton at the Etihad every season levels.

 

[Superace]

Of course we're not putting the Aussies in tonight. That would be crazy and a suicidal approach.
