The quality of thread starting has taken a massive step for the better here.

I know a lad who used to work for Blueline for years and switched to Uber a year or two ago. He tells me he's making much more for Uber and his hours are much better.

Dunno what he said but Ali isn't a 4 for me. He's clearly a capable batsman as this is his forth century this year, but some of the shots he plays certainly aren't that of a top order batsman. And given the fact that he's going to be expected to bowl quite a bit too, I certainly wouldn't have him higher than 6. Bairstow is clearly capable of batting at 5 but you have to consider him playing as a keeper too. If we bat second and he's had a long period in the keeping, it might be better that he's moved down a spot?

Aye you've nailed that funniest poster award.

Aye I think there's a good chance he'll ditch the captaincy.

Hope so. I think we could do with a boost especially since we don't have another test for half a year. I see Jennings and Hameed are in the Lions squad for Sri Lanka. I think that's a good move for the two of them before South Africa.

Didn't know there had been a previous thread about it. It just seemed logical.

Shit start but we've come back pretty well. Just waiting for the collapse now.

Good hundred from Moeen considering how scratchy he looked before lunch. Poor dismissal for Jennings. Hopefully he can learn from it.

I can't be the only person thinking this was about Gemmil's love truncheon can I?

Most likely to infect you with a virus.

Happy birthday for yesterday.

Dunno, certainly not me.

Poster most likely to piss at another posters Christmas party.

Poster most likely to drop a spoiler.

No he hasn't.

So did Gloomy. Of course he didn't make a tit of himself in a certain other thread though.

Can't understand a fucking word these two are saying here mind.

We've not played well at all really and totally strolled it.

I've been watching his movement off the ball and I think it's clear he's creating space for others.

Clearly playing for a new deal here.
