swallowed my pride and watching the cricket, exciting finish. What's the name of the commentator with the broad accent? Where is he from? He's very good.

David Lloyd, From Accrington Lancashire.
It is a good finish Cran Cran, I think Australia will get those 20 runs before we get the last wicket, but this is what it all boils down to.
Nearly caught him out by the boundary, but it slipped from his fingers and went for four, Australia having all the luck.
Don't see the point in breaking for lunch when it's just a matter of 20 runs/ 1 wicket, should just get on with it.

Yes want to watch cricket get to recre for game and watch Warrington v Huddersfield why do they do that? If your match is going to be a late kick off then why not slot it so we can all watch our home games and then get home to watch the main game of the day.  :witch:

The BBC are behind that Cran Cran, they dictate what time it starts unfortunately, going back in now to watch the cricket, they have just come back out from their sandwiches, and it should be all over within the next half hour.
Best of luck at the Recre Cran Cran, heres to a Haven win !

Good game that Cran Cran, England win by 14 runs, and I knew that was a wicket before the video umpire had even looked at it, you could clearly hear it hit the bat.

Not the gentleman's game anymore. What happened to walking when you're out?

James Anderson

Wow, what a bowler he is ! The difference between England and a fairly poor Aussie side. If he gets injured the series will be a lot closer that people originally thought.

I thought Stuart Broad bowled well too, those long runs and fast deliveries force the batsman into errors.
Good point Popularsider, but that's Australia for you.
