Harry Brook showing Livingstone how to play.

I’ve probably jinxed it now, but still.

31 of 7. Decent.

Watched the last 5 overs thought it was over

Hate to say this as a proud Lancastrian but HarryBrook is a class cricketer, everything that Liam Livingstone isn’t

 

[waspish]

Flukely caught just the last over after seeing this thread near the top.

Felt like I was watching a Playstation game and not something real. Brook seemed to be able to hit it wherever he wanted and the surrounding area is just gorgeous like something out of a Far Cry game...

Brilliant century from fellow blue Phil Salt

Revenge for the Carlos Braithwaite Remember the name final over.

We seem to apply the brakes once the power play is over and fall behind the rate.

21 off the last. Probably too many.

I got it wrong, very wrong - credit where it's due. That was magnificent by England.

It wasn’t paced well and we owe Brook a lot. A superb ending though.

Apologies for the delay - was watching a film with my good lady, but kept an eye on how things were going.
Brook, 31 off seven with a strike rate of 442, quite brilliant.

 

[TinFoilHat]

What a finish.

Wasn't expecting that.

 

[ancoats]

Great over and please can we have some more of that in the future

Morning guys, I'm in Goa at the end of January, so me and a mate have booked flights and a hotel in Hyderabad for a couple of days to see the Friday of the first test. Only problem is tickets. Tickets available on line all seem linked to package trips. I've mailed several times to the Indian Cricket Board in Mumbai, but not even had an acknowledgement. Anybody on here bought tickets for a day at the test in India?

 

[trueblue1972]

Fantastic start by England today 100/0 of 8.4

Test matches are not very well attended in India. im sure you can sort some when there if you have not been successful prior
