With that cloud cover, you'll always get movement and credit to Birthday Boy Anderson for eeking out every bit of swing he could out of it. He's an inconsistent fucker, but on his day he can swing like Wasim Akram.

I do worry about him in Oz though, it never swings down there. His best bet will be with reverse swing.

 

Wasim will always be alright with me. Even though he always used to fuck England's batting up, he was brilliant for Lancashire.

I think he's developed a lot more consistancy of late though, he's not 10 wickets every innings obviously but he's the lynchpin of our attack. He'll get the most out of the conditions, in fact there's probably no better in the world when it's swinging. In australia it'll be difficult for him, but he'll still put a shift in and I'm already calling Swanny for man of the series, he's gonna win us that.

Ezekiel Jackson's favourite cricketer is Clive Lloyd he told me on twitter. Awesome.

 

That's persuaded me to join Twitter on all its own. Ezekiel has great taste.

They've played these beach cricket things just before the Australian test series the last couple of years, so I reckon there will be another one around November time. Look out for it on Sky, it's great fun.

This is the type of cricket that Geoffrey Boycott will appreciate. No shots aside from the forward defensive prod. Lovely.

 

Jimmy Anderson is really boomeranging it around as well.
