Can Stokes overtake Root? It would be fun to watch him try!

I am right in thinking everyone wants to Rejoin the EU aren't I?

RP if you really do

Ollie Pope is not a wicketkeeper. Why are England picking non-keepers to play as an international keeper. Surely there is a good enough specialist (cough, cough ,Ben Foakes) that we could call up. It beggars belief. Not to mention Pope is barely deserving of a place right now.

Quick! VAR is down! everybody get offside! Do crimes! Be ungovernable!

No it is their job to do what their billionaire boss says.

And people REALLY need to work that out.

We took six bags of toys we no longer play with down to the charity shop this morning - I read somewhere that generally people have a new year clear out but families looking for Xmas presents need stuff before then. Makes sense - so spent yesterday sorting through our stuff

This is both sad and infuriating.

Sciver-Brunt - the glue of the team 👏

Lorraine Kelly, "Boris Johnson gave a radio interview in French, do you want to hear this?"

Paul Merton, "What's he saying Ian?"

Ian Hislop, "It's gibberish"

Proper batting from Rahul and Jaiswal, What can the Aussies come up with overnight? Any lead over 300 will be very tough when Bumrah is charging in.

4 days until the Border-Gavaskar trophy starts. The Aussies have one of the all time great attacks and India have some legendary batters but they are out of form. Will Kohli come good or are Cummins et al going to be too strong? Home advantage could sway this but it will be a sight to see.

Starter lists are a brilliant idea!

England field first, good. I think we've preferred chasing for a long time now, here's hoping for a big win.
