This fred just reminds me of Reg  Every time I see "new comment", I think it's going to be he telling us about a brief train ride down to Taunton. How he had the pleasure of an East European young filly sat yards away from him; to bring back to the fore memories of an earlier encounter in Tallinn and a wry chuckle to boot. |

Has to go.
I'm "In the know"
With an insecurity, don't ya know!
Stick with the clown
We're going to go down.
Could be the wideboy, "Am all in Shawn"
Lewisham Lee losing loyalty, living near Lausanne.
Could cute cockended "compete for cash" Curran
Complete a CB conundrum?
Could cuckoos make couscous
Create a culinary construct?
Could they cuck!

Well this has been a bit rubbish.
Root has almost four times more runs than any English batsman over the India and SL tests. Different gravy, but everyone else has been dreadful.

Did we ever find out what has happened to Reg? |

After all that test match red (/pink) ball nonsense, the REAL cricket starts today: 1st T20 international, India v England.
England won the toss and have chosen to bowl. PLAY BALL.

Should be really good to be fair. Not a test match snob, I'll watch any cricket and this 5 match series should be genuinely good - one of the issues with T20I series is that they're usually 1 or 2 game affairs, this should have some chance of momentum and narrative.
World Cup later in the year as well, in India. I reckon we have a chance, but really need Moeen or S Curran to nail down 7 and balance the team.

A good start for England, Rahul out for 1 and Kohli out with a big fat lonely 0.

Bowling our two best bowlers up front is a fucking ballsy move. As is picking Sam Curran and not giving him the new ball.

2nd ODI, Ben Stokes has just hit 45 runs off 10 balls, and is still going (95* from 50).
