Question 4: Will 300 runs be scored by COP on day 1?

Marcuss's game bid for outright glory falls just 3 short, but it's still a "no"

Fallers:

Marcuss Yes


Standing:

GIMH No
Howe_zat No


For our remaining two then:

Question 5: Will England's opening partnership be worth 50 runs or more?

Question 6: Will England have exceeded Australia's total by COP?

Small comfort to be honest.

Still a result to win something on here for a change. First time I managed to pass the first round, of course proving that this game is all about momentum.

I resent that I resemble that remark.

I'll kick off the next game, if nobody minds?

Ought to change the thread title for a new round.

New Round Starting for Day Four!!!

Reliable bunch, students, eh?

Ok, I'll step in:

Question One: Will Anderson be the next wicket to fall?

Question Two: Will Australia win by 250 runs or more?


Could a kindly mod amend the title, please?
