Re: Cricket
I always feel that LBW decisions should be automatically reviewed anyway. But yes it is funny to take the mickey out of the Aussies.

Re: Cricket
Fall in Sky Ashes viewing figures leaves English cricket facing stark choices.

Re: Cricket
But with the nice weather we have had over the last week, who is staying indoors to watch cricket? I bet a lot of people were in a pub watching it, or round a mates house to watch it. Can't really read much into that, we need to compare the figures for a Test match when it was not so nice weather.

Re: Cricket
True. The only part of Wimbledon I watched was the Federer Murray match, women's final and the women's doubles final.
---------- Post added at 15:28 ---------- Previous post was at 15:24 ----------
Did watch a bit on Saturday though between finals.

Re: Cricket
I just flicked over to the tennis between overs and drinks, lunch and tea breaks.

Re: Cricket
Ominous start from Aussies. Between 1886 and 2009 England won just one Ashes test at Lords.

Re: Cricket
Still up old boy but l have to say that Lords should be ashamed of the test pitch it has produced.

Re: Cricket
Will have to reserve judgement on the pitch until after England have batted on it.

Re: Cricket
Whoever won the toss were inevitably going to bat first on this featherbed.
