I genuinely would be embarrassed to get out like that now. And I’m 45 and haven’t played in 18 months. Shocking. We’re making this shower look like Holding, Ambrose, Marshall and Walsh.

That’s a very green wicket imo

In fairness, he has had to wait a long time for his chance. Stands to reason he'd be in a bit of hurry.

It is. Nothing wrong with that, though. You need a bit of grass on a wicket like that in those conditions. It’ll hold it together for four days before cracking.
And it’s no excuse for bottom-edging a rank long hop to the keeper in a fùcking test match.

That brings a quick question to mind: Did those four actually ever play together?
The latter trio, certainly. Just not sure about Holding.

I think Holding had gone before Ambrose started up. Probably just as well

I think our boys would struggle to face that quartet now and one of them is dead
