Anyone actually watching the GP?

Nope

2 runs needed

Scores level, 3 wickets left

And England win, Wood MOTM surely.

No Anderson at Old Trafford?

Maybe for Robinson but otherwise?

Got to question whether Robinson will be fit enough for Old Trafford

Guessing tge rotation was to ensure Jimmy plays at OT.
Although Wood & Tongue have that extra edge of pace

I think Wood has to play after this performance. There is a decent period of time for him to rest up.

I was hoping I’d implied that.

I think Woakes is undroppable too.

Booo.
We want Foakes!

We want Rew. (See Hampshire page)

I watched some of that, it was really good. England played really well.

I was watching England fielding but had to go out for the second half.

It dawned on me that the men’s and women’s team must share the same catching coach!!

I watched the first 25 overs of the Australian innings, then later on watched most of the England innings. When they lost those three late wickets it looked like they would fall short but they did really well to get there.
