Stupid rain go away:

Before play they are ferociously preparing for the day, I've been to grounds an hour before the start and they are all practicing like mad. That would have been about 10am if they wanted to do it without disrupting practice and hardly anyone would be in the crowd to see it. What's 10 minutes when you are meeting the most important person on the planet?

I thought they were just meeting the Queen?

 

[Howsie]

And people were saying Broad doesn't get swing or seam movement......

I'm still saying he doesn't. Two or Three balls when the conditions suit doesn't show us anything.

 

[Sureshot]

Most the current cloud dumped it's load on us. I doubt they'll be off for much more than an hour.

 

[Skater]

It's been angry storms all day here. I hope what we've had isn't heading down to Lord's.

There we go, 30 minutes after my post, we'll be playing again. Anderson and Onions to start, ta.

 

[piriyanth]

Oh good the play is starting again.

Beat ya to it

Entirely subjective of course, but in my opinion she is and I bet to most of the players she is too.

 

[ZoraxDoom]

Katich just wafting there. Broad and Anderson, just keep pitching it up! Fast, full and straight! That's all..

 

[Simbazz]

Entirely subjective of course, but in my opinion she is and I bet to most of the players she is too.

Lets be honest, the queen is far from the most important person in the world.

The whole Royalty thing now is basically a tourism pull.

Opinions, opinions.

 

[ZoraxDoom]

Poor over by Broad thus far...11 off 3 balls.


And another rain delay. Great.
