What's going on here? The Aussies have gone off at an incredible speed, over 6 an over right now and they are gonna be past England's score within 4-5 overs at this rate. Not watching so is this poor bowling or the Aussies trying to get at them quickly?

This started today? :/
Even Tuffers and Aggers thought that one was uncalled for.
No mate this is just the warm-up. Starts for real tomorrow.
So true! Meanwhile, Blofeld is playing the straight man to Boycott's grumpy Yorkshireman. I'm loving it.
TMS is awesome to listen too. I find it oddly relaxing.

I have muchos respect for Boycott not being properly impartial like all other sports commentators are/should be.[ASSE]Hinchy;14633349 said:Boycott is brilliant here. Absolutely brilliant
Every single shot that gets hit you can just hear him groaning.

OK, what's the deal with Nessun Dorma at cricket?
They played that at Edgbaston last week, I didn't get it either

The game against Holland where we lost was quality, he didn't defend England's shocking play, just congratulated Holland on a magnificent upset. He's very straight up, great to listen to.

His accent is weary after a while but he's pretty good. I think as football fans though we're used to the bar being set so low thanks to e.g. David Pleat.

I wish Boycott commentated on everything.
TMS is a real education. My favourite program of all time. You learn so much about the game listening to those guys. Aggers and Henry are just awesome and Geoffrey a great summariser.
Back to the team selection - just you think Broad is slightly invincible due to having family history in the game etc? I think if it had been anyone else he would have been dropped long before now.

One reason why whenever I watch footy on ITV I mute it. Can't stand that idiot.
I would have picked Sibo. Harmison has had many chances in an England shirt and taken very few of them.
