Went yesterday and saw England bowl all day.
Going tomorrow and suspect I'll see the same thing!

….Lancs 204 all out in the County Championship at Surrey.

The rain, it raineth every day
A young side against a very experienced top of the table Surrey, to be expected. Yet another overseas signing, Iyer, proving an almighty flop, out for 4.

Off for rain, England 259-6, Smith 72*, Brook 56, Root 42, lead by 23.
Already looking hopeless for Lancashire, Surrey 83-0.

This is turning into an interesting match! Anyone know the score with day 5 tickets? Can’t see any info on the Lancs website.
Why are they persisting with the Hundred? It feels like every ounce of energy is being thrown at something that seems to have lukewarm interest.

The alleged reason given is to attract a new audience. The kind of audience that wouldn't dream of watching a Test match. However, I think we all know the real reason.

I'm all for playing youngsters but throwing so many in together is never a good idea, let alone against the best team in the country. getting hammered does no-one's confidence any good.
Good to see Bailey, Mahmoud, Wood, and Salt are all 'resting', while Livingstone seems to be heading down the Buttler route.

Buttler's always conveniently injured when Lancashire play, time to cut the link. Don't know why Salt and Livingstone are 'resting', they've hardly overburdened themselves this season. Don't rate Wood much, Mahmood, because of his injury problem, I suppose needs a bit of nursing. Lancashire could be in the bottom two at the conclusion of the current matches.

Sri Lanka all out for 358, a fine effort. England need 205 to win.
I've been impressed by the Sri Lankans. Put up a fight and hopefully the pitch starts to deteriorate and give England a bit of a test.

Yep, they've grown into the match. A pity they only had one warm up match, and that was against the England Lions.
