AKCJ

78 days since relegation.

Been relegated for nearly 3 months now and we're still in the "hope to identify a preferred candidate this week" phase. These jokers are not fit for purpose. They have to go.

Absolutely. We wouldn't have won that test if India fielded better. Jaiswal alone dropped about 5.

England's incompetence today might save you but it was ridiculous to wait so long to declare with rain on the way. Stokes has won the toss twice this series and has made the wrong decision twice.

I think the captaincy from both sides has been extremely average in this series so far.

Well at least I won't need to flick between this and the F1 later.

We're about 5 years on from the training ground opening up and 12 years on from becoming a Category 1 academy. We should be getting good players coming through regularly.

Very keen to know what total Gill will be happy with. I supect it'll be north of 500.

Has anything interesting happened? I got bored after about 15 minutes of the first half.

Swapping ends seems entirely pointless.

Did Ricardo play with King?

So this is the training kit?

I think I saw that his return date was around October so he'll miss the transfer window. I bet the club were banking on Sheff Utd going up and giving us £15m for him. He was doing really well there before his injury.

I don't think any of the internationals barring Hamza and McAteer are back yet and those two aren't in this squad.

Leeds had 7 3pms last season.

Everyone looks like a top class batsman with the Kookaburra ball this season. Rehan will end up back in the England team at some point. but as an all rounder.

All the talk of "Bazball with brains" lasted for a while didn't it. You only need to look at the Indian scorecard to know that you need to get yourself in to score runs on this pitch. But this lot just cannot help themselves. There's no thought process aside from "lets go for it". Just get yourself in and score from there. You've been put in to chase 600 at 5pm. Just see the new ball off and press the accelerator then. Root will go big but run out of partners as we're bowled out for 300. Brook is in now looking like a cat on a hot tin roof.

The same bollocks every year. This will all be meticulously followed for the first 3 weeks causing chaos and the rules will be mysteriously relaxed.

I suspect that was done tactically.

Are you really an English cricket fan if you don't find it impossible to talk about that Australian side without throwing in a few sly digs?

Desperately sad news. Diogo seemed to save his best for games against Leicester City. Awful to die alongside your brother at such a young age. Thoughts with his wife and children.

It'll be Friday because then it gives us enough time to get Top over here to sign everything, get photos done and a cheesy Oasis-themed video with the caption "You gotta Rohl with it".

Major heart attack seeing his name under "recent topics" there
