Starts at 10pm. I stayed up to watch last nights debacle - was in bed by 6am which was unexpected - credit to Southee who bowled near unplayable deliveries to Bell, Ali and particularly Taylor. The rest however was all England's wrong-doing. Next game, I feel Ballance isn't quite...

Think we're agreed on this one, so no further comments from me! :wink: --- old post above --- --- new post below --- Agreed on Bravo. Pollard could hold down a place as a finisher in all likeliness. He's a bit of a bits and pieces player but he'd easily get into the squad at least. The fact...

Big step up from List A cricket to International. Fair point on Graeme Smith but he went on to captain his country for more than a decade and is a rare phenomenon in that respect. WI are a fading star and have been further crippled by devastating internal disputes. There is a major issue...

Replay the game!? I don't think so! There have been poor decisions made in matches for months and years and decades and centuries! Do we have to replay all of those as well?

Taylor has little experience of International Cricket - far too soon for him - he hasn't even scored 1,000 international runs yet let alone be captain! Root may have been a good bet to replace Cook when he was sacked but sadly Morgan got the gig and we have to stick with him now. Agree Morgan...

Of course not but I agree that different 'high profile' games should've been considered. --- old post above --- --- new post below --- NZ and Aus will walk the group. After that Sri Lanka (weak bowling, decent batting) and England are reasonably evenly matched for me. Bangladesh may have...

I started in March 2014 and have completed 30 runs at Poole so far - PB is 23:31 having posted 26:36 at the first attempt. Ours is one of the busiest with 500 plus runners every week but the buzz amongst the runners is worth getting up for! Hoping for my 50 top around June time. :)

Similar question - my current 16-25 railcard expires in August but my 26th Birthday is in March. Am I allowed to renew the railcard in March before my 26th Birthday even though the existing railcard won't have expired?

Loved this show, particularly the first two series' where the robots had to do the gauntlet and trials as well as beat each other up! Always remember it was after Double Simpsons or the Fresh Prince on a Friday night - oh to be nine years oldvagain! :D

Three episodes this week then. The first (the Final Five) was a little disappointing - I was hoping for a little more insight into the business plans before the main episode (without giving away the obvious flaws etc.) The interview episode is always a favourite and was brilliant...

Another one was that a club captain declared an innings at 408-6 after 63 overs with himself 11 short of the club record on 220 not out. Both 408 (test cap number) and 63 (number when retired hurt) are of course relevant to the recent sad events involving Phillip Hughes. A totally selfless...

I thought Felipe and Daniel both should've gone yesterday after they were declared the losers. Having said that I felt the fines associated with the skeleton were ridiculously harsh and the other side should really have lost. The 'winning' side were far more disorganised and Sanjay dodged...

Latecomer to this thread but my views on where we're at: 20 candidates - Mixed views. Double/triple firings added an interesting dimension but the vast numbers of candidates at the start made the show very tricky to get into early on. Tasks - The tour-bus task felt like a waste of a week...

Very sad news, I was in shock this morning. Every time I see 1988-2014 (Aged 25), it really hits hard - that is so young. RIP :(

In the same area: Waterlooville store is a Poundland. Portsmouth's large store is still unoccupied I believe (although haven't been down there for a while) - must be a fortune in rent there.

If it was Woking it would be an inaccuracy as the programme regularly made reference to '2-hour commutes'. Oh and there isn't a 07:39 anyway! :wink: I thought I heard the automated announcer say 'calling at Guildford, Woking and Waterloo' at one point so I think the script intended them to...

Stokes and Broad can hold their heads up high with decent showings in adversity. The rest were mentally weak. Poor selections too. Root was unfortunate to be dropped for the Fifth Test. Unfair to make a young batsman the scapegoat when so many senior players around him have done worse and...

lager: Don't mind most but can't stand Foster's or Stella. ale: Not for me. cider: Probably my favourite alcoholic drink, particularly enjoyed Grape and Black Cherry flavours over the festive period. Love a Thatchers and Black in the summer too. spirits: Not really my bag; have been known...

SA should have won, they shut up shop when really they could have got the win and achieve the highest ever 4th innings run chase in Test Cricket!

Doing Cosham to Poole and back tomorrow. Morning train (0615) should be okay... may have to take a half day though. We'll see...
