  1. Oh I wouldn’t have declared but I wouldn’t call it reckless either. Anyway - Warner has gone 😀😀😀😀
  2. I wouldn’t call it reckless as we did only have 2 wickets left. I guess we’ll have a better idea later on today…
  3. The whole concept of Bazball is a bit of a gamble. So far it has (on the whole) paid off but there will be occasions when it goes completely ‘tits up’ Let’s just hope that doesn’t happen against this lot…
  4. Any Dominican ancestry? - you’d almost certainly get a game 😁
  5. I think that’s true of any ‘unusual tactic’ Personally, I’d have sent out the instruction (to Root and Robinson) to ‘give it a twat’ We would either have added another 40ish runs or lost the last 2 wickets quickly and still had a bowl at them. I’d also be interested in the thinking behind Robinson bowling instead of Andersen. All that being said, Stokes certainly has plenty of ‘credit in the bank’ to make whatever decisions (within reason 😁) he wants. I wonder if he’d have done the same if we’d only been 4/5 wickets down…
  6. Could be worse, could be a Wales fan 😁
  7. 6 short (change of innings) - but that’s with the extra half an hour. As @matt83 mentioned earlier, they were on 74 overs just before the scheduled close of play. As you say, ridiculous.
  8. Ten (had to look it up!): Andresen, Berg, Bjornebye, Bohinen, King, Ostenstad, Gamst Pedersen, Pedersen, Samuelson, Tromstad
  9. I’d not go as far as trying to get 110 overs in the day, but I would make them stay out there until all 90 overs have been bowled (light/weather permitting)
  10. Gino Mader, pro cyclist - dies following a crash aged 26.
  11. It’s that sort of attitude which will impress our CEO 😁
  12. Neneh Cherry - Buffalo Stance
  13. Bairstow test average 37 Foakes test average 32 I think Foakes’ superior glove work is worth more than 5 runs per innings.
  14. Dusty Springfield - Son Of A Preacher Man
  15. Ahem - it’s Ferry Cross The Mersey… (damn autocorrect right 😁) Brian Ferry - Slave To Love
  16. Change of kick off time:
  17. I bet his mum still calls him Xavier 😀
  18. 12k x £312.50 ( middle of your range) = £3.75 million 8.5k x £412.50 (middle of your range) = £3.5 million
  19. I was talking about if they made the decision to revert to the early bird prices for this season not next. Regarding making up the £800,000 you mention - this would take selling an additional 2,857 tickets (at £280). This doesn’t seem like an unrealistic target to me, but unless we try we’re never going to know.
