Nice work Nellberg, just read that thinking it made a lot of sense... Admittedly a bit earlier for congratulations but the thought process looks pretty spot on.

half of my theory looks horrendous (batting first being key isn't looking so great now haha)

however, the broad motm punt has had a reasonable start ...

Crikey, they could be all out before lunch on the first day.

Our "most runs at Cardiff" is unlikely to be threatened at TB.

Broad 7 wickets for 11 runs.  Best bowling figures ever?

Thoughts on England forfeiting an innings and just keeping going ?

Came here to ask if this is a) allowed, b) in the spirit of the game and c) advisable...

Broad seems to have pulled off a wonderful piece of magic. He's convinced the Aussie line up that the ball is moving round corners when all it's doing is nipping back of a length a bit. Fabulous.

In Tests, it must be the best by anyone, ever, surely?

It is allowed and has happened once in test cricket.  Back in 2000 when 3 days of a test were washed out with the South Africans.

Wouldn't say its advisable, just have to hope our batting line up can stay in the middle for more than 2 minutes at a time!

its a gentle county nibbler. nothing too extravagant. see this all over the country in the domestic game. someone like chris rushworth takes bucketloads a season on these

unfortunately the aussies are too used to smacking 400 off 50 overs on roads wearing pyjamas, it seems


as to sticking them in again, why take the risk? they could get 450 and put you under it. well they might
