The Ashes 2015

I had Lyth down for a duck to be fair to him.

So he exceeded your expectations by a bit :)

I don't rate him I'll be surprised if he gets a 50 in this ashes series

Probably a tad harsh that - too early in his test career to say whether he can or can't make the grade

Thats me looking through my red rose tinted spectacles mate :)

Pitch looks dead - will only get slower - Cook will prod his way to a ton on this pitch

Benign pitch, England picking up runs, and Hazlewood and Johnson quick but wayward. Fasinating opening.

once the ball is around 20 overs old it'll be "easier" bat but this pitch doesn't look like a team can get 20 wickets

then again Johnson has just got a couple to fly but they were wide ones. He gets a straight one to do that then it's a different story

But get through 20 and you're right - won't reverse in this weather may do on Friday when warmer

Hate Cardiff having an Ashes Test, and the first one of the series at that. Crowd is dead, pitch is poor, just give the 1st Test to Lord's and have some proper Ashes feel and pomp and circumstance that you get with the home of cricket.
