What another compelling Test Match. Not sure my nerves can cope with these games especially coming after the penalty shoot out my football team went through at the end of May! All three Test Matches have been keenly fought and Mark Wood’s explosive bowling (not forgetting his explosive cameos with the bat) making the difference. Certainly when I was there on Thursday watching him bowl was spine tingling! We were spending time yesterday with our grandsons but  we were keeping an eye on the cricket!

Went for a ride this morning and managed to beat the rain. As it is chucking it down now I am not very optimistic about playing cricket tomorrow- it is ironic when I have to select sides this year (I left out a few this time) it rains!!!
