Josh Poysden (YCCC) was involved in a freak accident yesterday during when a loose ball from Dom Bess, fractured his skull putting him out for the season.

Cricket understatement of the year. Watching the test today (TV) against Ireland. Ireland were 11 for 0 and I said to my mate we need a wicket before they reach 30. We got 7.

[SCOTTISH LEEDS]

Aussie's 12-2 and then 35-3 after winning the toss and deciding to bat first.

I’m glued to it, Mrs B isn’t happy

[SCOTTISH LEEDS]

Aussie's recover to 83-3 at Lunch.

James Anderson away to have a scan on the calf injury he got at the start of July.

112-7, this is a brilliant watch

Smith keeping them in it. If Oz get close to 200 and we bat as we did against Ireland, Oz will get a first innings lead.

Australia 122 for 8 close of play 268 for 9. Its been our problem for years, we can't get tail-ender's out. Smith would never have got near his century if we'd dismissed the tail-ender's.

Brilliant century for Rory Burns.

Brilliant century for Rory Burns.

It took a while, even Mrs B was cheering him on when he was stuck on 99.
