Surely they can’t be finding it that hard to sell ad space?

Unless you are mistaken, there was also one for a Nottingham takeaway.

Oh, and that was probably the best catch I've ever seen.

How is dangerman Amla being shut out the game. No.2 batsmen and only 13 runs not out. Has he been at the wrong end of the wicket all day?

He was smacked on the bonce by an Archer bouncer and retired hurt. Only came out after the 6th ( I think) wicket fell.

Can you imagine the English football team playing a tournament in the closing weeks of the Premier League .
The county stuff is made up of the also-rans that didn't impress the selectors of their respective nations.

Sorry, I get it now. I thought the scorecard made it strange reading. It only gives half the story.

When Moeen is off form he's terrible and he's been in a rut for a while. If we're in a knock out match can we rely on him to do the business, or will he just keep throwing his wicket away? His highs are higher than Dawson's but there's no reliability at all and we might be better off giving Dawson a few games now.
