Although for fun and entertainment value, I can never get enough of Joe Root hitting Nathan Lyon for six, so I was a little disappointed we didn’t get another half hour of that.

Fairly predictably unconventional would be how we’d bracket it.

Seems like England could have added another 20 or so, but anyone who’s been watching them over the last year wouldn’t have been shocked at the decision.

That’s not okay.

Ricky Ponting: ‘The best businessmen are the guys who solve problems faster than others.’

Ian Ward (to Pat Cummins): ‘England are going to come at you…is that ok?’

I’ve already heard Travball, Gazball, and Smudgeball. Could be a long series listening to the Australian commentators. It must be said that while our test team is in fairly good shape, for the country that produced Richie Benaud our commentary stocks are at an all time low. I don’t think I like any current Aussie commentators and listening to clips of the Sky team fills me with jealousy.

Sometimes, as we publish stuff on here, we wonder where the comments are going to go.
