I mean that I am, but I'm sure there's someone in the office that doesn't.

I always thought C4's coverage of the cricket was outstanding. I wish they never lost the TV contract.

Indeed, it was superb, had a great team working on it.

Div 2 promotion race bubbling along nicely. It's entirely possible that Derbyshire - I still remain to be convinced that it's a real county, but hey ho - could spaff this up quite spectacularly.

Meanwhile, it's Bairstow and Woakes for Trott and Finn. Ravi-Bop to bat at 3. So that'll be.... yeah.
Ryan McLaren and Tsotsobe out for the Saffers. Morne back and Justin Ontong added in their stead. England won toss and bat first.

If Trott wasn't injured today, I wonder if he'd have got a game. Bairstow, Buttler and others all demanding inclusion.

Ravi not on his own in getting himself out. Poor shots from Bairstow, Morgan and now Cook. Trouble at 99/5.
