what’s Butler’s century record again?

not that it’s relevant, as we are going to lose this and nobody will get a century

oh Malan has the record

I forgot, because it makes no sense that Malan had the fastest T20 century for England

Brilliant game. I’ve got tickets for Tuesday with my son. Really want to go but feel a bit uneasy

Parky’s time to shine

Understandable. Don’t think I’ll consider going to any sporting event until there’s a vaccine for Sweet Caroline.

Delighted for Livi

Pretty perfect Friday night at the cricket that, all in I reckon

What an innings. Unbelievable entertainment. If I’m a kid and I see that I’m hooked, no doubt about it. Annoys me a bit when I watch games like that that there aren’t more games on free telly. Surely the £40m Hundred money could have just been better spent subsidising more BBC coverage and bigger names in the Blast, and maybe better scheduling. Casual fans aren’t snubbing cricket because T20’s slightly too long as a format.

Glad that Pakistan won today. They can’t be coming cover and letting England get away with a training session. Also good to aee Livingston smashbsome runs, and we played a decent batting team.

Tonight pretty much showed why top quality strike bowlers who can take wickets in the first couple of overs are invaluable regardless of format.

We were ahead of where Pakistan were at one point, but 4 wickets more down.

Goos test for 6 used bowlers, 5 of which at least stand little chance of bowling in the WC

Still a bit testy that in their last 2 4 day games, Lancs knocked Kent over for 74 on day 1, and put on 400+ for 2 first innings against Yorkshire and got 2 draws out if it because of the weather.

If you can’t guarantee 4 day’s play, etc

That yorkshire shirt wouldn’t be out of place in the hundred :nauseated_face:

Lancs: hit 35 of the first 2 overs

Rob Key: you have to say Yorkshire have got that wrong

#TopAnalysis

Sounds like he felt he had to say it

Bit TOO sporting from Yorkshire that, supposed to be a rivalry

only joking, it’s good to see really

Never in doubt…

Is there a reason why Stokes isn’t playing the T20s? Also, if Eoin Morgan could play himself back into form that’d be great
