    I remember being at a match at home to Bradford City and once and saying "It's darkening up over there". In reference to the cloud behind the North Stand. Someone turned round and called me a racist :D.

    Very recently I asked a friend whose daughter is pregnant, what colour the baby was? meaning pink or blue for a girl or boy. The answer came back "It's black".

    I future I will ask about the baby's gender.

    Makes sense. They need another front line spinner in there, and in turn, need a proper keeper. Guessing Anderson is making way to give him a rest, after playing the first two tests (not sure if anybody in the media has mentioned this, but he's 40 years old apparently) but also because he's the weakest batter out of the seamers.

    When do you reckon he'll retire? I think next year after the Ashes.

    Probably, particularly if we win.

    You’d imagine so but I’ve been expecting him to retire for the last 5 years so who knows.

    He's started with left arm spin in the nets, maybe that will get him through to his 50s.

    Also - He might want to get to 700 wickets. He's 25 short of that, might need more than the summer to get those.

    To even be taking about 700 wickets for a seamer is unbelievable.

    He has had a truly golden career. Still is in fact. Definitely on for a knighthood.

    I know Cook got his knighthood soon after he retired from international cricket.
    Hadlee was the same I believe so you’d think Anderson would be certain to follow suit

    Harry Brook continuing to take his PSL form in to test matches. His average in Pakistan in all competitions must be huge.

    111 and out. Who was that umpire that always hopped whenever anyone was on that score?
