That’s no good, I’m trying to reengage. Hoping for a good contest with a focus on the cricket.

I reckon old Davey Warner though to himself, "How good would it be to be able to sit back and watch the Aussies bat out the first innings?"

Channel ****ing Seven.

Watching as Marnus is facing up on 99 - 7Mate (due to the news on the main channel). Then as the ball was about to be bowled, - broadcast stops and they say to continue watching on 7HD. The two seconds it took to pick up the remote and switch - missed the ton.

Smith averaging 75 in first innings knocks is just extraordinary.

Anyone see the crazy Pak v Eng score on day 1 ?

Poms 4 / 506 ! 4 x centuries.

Yeah not bad for a side ravaged by injury.

I mean the score. England make 506 in a day and four get hundreds. Pak need to be on notice for that.

Oh I thought you were questioning my post.

Rawlpindi pitch and England get 500+ in a day with some of those players already being ill - nothing suspect at all.

Stokes hits the 1st ball he faces of the day for 6, then is bowled 3 balls later.

Well, actually....

Let's not forget only one of Pakistan's front four bowlers is NOT on debut here. Their six bowlers from yesterday have a combined 34 test wickets.

I flicked over when they were 300 odd off 45 overs and immediately wondered what the highest score ever on the first day of play in test match was . Turns out they beat it with only 75 overs bowled

And they stopped early for bad light. Apparently only 13 balls for the day weren't scored off.

What were the odds on that happening?

I'll ask SEN

I'm betting that SpiderBurton22 will know.

That is astonishing

That $17 for the draw at the start of the Perth test is looking good too.

Edit: Not so good now
