    I normally do 1-2 days of a test match each summer, but decided not to bother this year. The prices have gone up and up to where it's now not far shy of £100. Which was particular gauling for a day/night game I saw at the Oval which was over in ~3 hours, we were all out for 39 or something ridiculous like that.

    Probably needs an asterix, that.

    Sky currently have Ponting and Mark Taylor on commentary. They are decent but I wonder how often during an Australian Ashes series Australian TV has two former England captains doing commentary.

    Having seen Brook dismissal, England's luck has gone.

    Might have looked different if Broad had got Warner but declaring with Root still in is potentially leaving 30 or more runs on table. Don’t like it.
