Balls started spinning mate. Ali and Rashid have been great.

The collective figures of Ali and Rashid tonight were 20-2-73-5. Not too shabby at all.

Chasing seems to becoming a lost art like knuckling down in Test matches. Win toss, bat first.

Team that bats first wins - there seems to be a pattern developing in this series.
Suppose it's not surprising in September.

Do you remember when one day games in Sept started at 10.30am and the teams batting first were largely stuffed by the excessive movement.

Always remember the big one day finals were teams batting first were usually rolled over. Was it the B+H cup? Or the Gillette trophy? Memories...

Yes there was always dew on the ball in the morning or something. Maybe with D/Ns there is dew on the ball in the evening now.

They should play the limited overs' matches before the Test series to give them more bite. Remember Flintoff bouncing one of the Aussie batsmen in a one day game to set the scene for the summer ?

The 50 over final in early Sept (Gillette, Nat West....). In later years it got moved back a week or two, making the problem even worse!

Today's county games started at 10.30am. In two of the games, Middx are currently 12/3 and Notts are 7/3.
