Having had a look at future schedules, Manchester does have plenty of Tests over the next five years so can't complain too much.

That said, it will always infuriate me that Lords gets two Test matches every summer.

It annoys me as well, the ticket prices down here are a joke as well. I tend to go to the Oval or stay with family in Birmingham and go to Edgbaston. for the Pakistan test earlier in the summer it was 100 quid a ticket. You could probably go to all 4 days of the Headingly test at that price I think.

One-dayer at Trent Bridge is going well.
England 239/1 after 29 overs.

..amazing, channel hopping between Royal Ascot, the cricket and World Cup footy. It’s why I like the summer so much.

I was thinking this earlier, I think they should do it with one ball left. Show no sympathy and laugh at them, they would always take the piss when they used to do this.

50 off 3 overs

50 off 4 overs to get to 500. Come on!
