That turned out to be true! Anyway, gotta appreciate the enthusiasm of the Barmy Army fans who have bought tickets for the 5th Test.

@Alex:

I think you did jinx it!

Has anything been happening in the world of cricket lately (other than England’s shambolic away form in Tests)?! 

[EJS]

Lots of crying.. actually feel a bit sorry for the Aussies

[Maynard Friedman]

Luvvly jubbly, what a test! Let’s back this up at Lord’s England. We need to deal with Kohli though, he’s top drawer.

Will you be carrying a placard? Anyway, hope it doesn't rain anymore although the weather forecast says otherwise.

And a Boxing Day Ashes at MCG or any of the famous Australian grounds. Too bad they won't be playing in WACA anymore.

@Alex and @AdamJ are at Lords, I'm a tad jealous…..

It rained… but then

the sun came out!

Gee, Archer was bowling cannonballs… Crazy how much pace he can get! Stokes was hitting some excellent shots in his second innings. Don't know how y'all feel about Steve Smith, but from an Australian, it was a shame that he got injured because I love to watch him bat (and field). That welt on his forearm was almost immediate and thank goodness the one in the neck did not seem to be serious. Worrisome, considering the damage it has the ability to cause. Now onto the third test...

[Alex]

Holy fuck

I know Stokes put it in a legendary performance, but that one run from Leach! - Proper Iron Heart - "It's not over till it's over!"

[neph93]

That was mental…. old school stuff.

Stokes… My gawsh. So much frustration with the Australian side, but one can only stand and clap at Stokes' performance. Partnership worth 76 with Leach who scored 1 run lol Smart decisions between these two blokes.
