On the one hand, ballots are bad for us as individual spectators - but on the upside, it may be a sign that cricket is getting more popular with the general population.

It's a method for keeping prices artificially high, a pretense of demand via FOMO.

They think they can get Duckett, Lawrence and Pope for sod all. They might be right.

Long anthem! Cheerful though.

I like SL. They were really working hard at Old Trafford. One more and they're in the again.

Root out off a ramp shot - wonder how many times that's happened? Equalled Cook's record of 33 test centuries. Still some way to go to catch Tendulkar though.

Joe Root won't catch Tendulkar's record of 51.

I doubt he'll catch Ponting on 41.

His tons/innings ratio is quite a bit lower than those two. He might catch Dravid (36)

He may have a chance of passing Tendulkar in terms of most runs in test cricket though. He will certainly surpass Cook to become all time England test run scorer - he needs about 200 runs or so to do so.
