Heard another I didn't recognise and they were bloody talking over the song. :(


That’s it! :drinkers:

I heard the beginning part, which isn’t the bit they play.

It’s that bit in the middle about “a million people here tonight”...

Just a bit!

Hope it isn’t the decisive moment.

Yeah, soon as I heard the chorus, knew it was that with the "I like" at the end.

Good game, good game. :drinkers:

Agree, Holden. It's OK at the T20, but doesn't allow any atmosphere to build naturally, same as playing music when goals are scored. Plus allows dancing twats to get on the big screen.

I live with the only American cricket fan I've ever heard of. It's a boring day.

NZ need a minimum of 260 to make this interesting and even then you'd have to imagine they'd need a couple of early wickets.

Pissed up girls waving to the cameras when playing 'Who Let the Dogs Out' is not a good idea.

Anyway, another gone. 173/5. Will struggle to 250 from here.

23 extras for NZ.

Poor from England in a game like this.

Another wicket falls.

Criminal stuff from NZ if they can't make it through the full 50 here.

Chase of 242. England will never have a better chance of winning this thing. If they choke Konta-style they will all want shooting.

Excellent stuff from England there.

Can't see them losing this now.

Opening pair put on 50+ and this game is over.

Should be an intriguing run chase. Just a shame the crowd are crap, the music utterly pointless and I think I heard Laura Woods over the tannoy at one point.

Move this to Edgbaston.

I'll admit a day out at a test match is a marvellous day out.
