Yeah, I feel the same about it although I have seen more than 2 minutes, if only on tv. It seems odd to have the T20 and the 100 so if it’s a choice for a live short form match then I prefer to watch Lancashire than Manchester. I’m sure a lot of you feel the same about Sussex and Southern...
Great catch and well done to Marsh for walking. The pundits think there is no spirit of cricket but clearly not all current players agree (even Aussies).
Wearing each other’s shirts to draw attention to the problems faced by people with dementia. That sounds like getting everyone drunk to draw attention to the problems faced by alcoholics…
I think you mean ‘back the the early 20th century.’ Sounds like you yearn for the pre war days of timeless tests. Change does not always mean progression and in this case your desired outcome of a result was actually guaranteed in the old days.
Yes, go to the ECB website. You will need to buy in the priority window. I think they sell out months before the match starts so a bit late for this year.

Edit; Saying ‘sold out’ for every day on the Oval website.
I’m really looking forward to this match. Drawing a series against the world test champions would be a pretty decent achievement and one on which to build. Should be a really entertaining match. No need to take your stumps home just because we can’t win the Ashes back…….this time.
