Strains of Soul Limbo at 10.25am...

...it must be a...

Oh...

(Nice to have @bbctms on anyway! Forgot it started with bloody rain!!)

#Coronavirus #cricket

I do love the fact that a replayed day of cricket on @bbctms is affected by a rain-delay...

(Jokingly) prophetic @Cricket_Mann "It& #39;ll be one of the great Test matches"

Tim Paine said "it& #39;ll be harder to bat on day 5 than day 1"

Almost an hour and a half of @bbctms on "live" now and we& #39;ve not had any cricket at all.

Glorious.

#tailendersoftheworlduniteandtakeover @gregjames @felixwhite #coronavirus #Cricket

Harris out as they come off for rain!

Feel his pain. I was once - as a kid - the only wicket in a game that was called off for rain soon after I trudged off #GCS

Hate to see it.

#tailendersoftheworlduniteandtakeover @bbctms @jimmy9 @felixwhite @gregjames #coronavirus #cricket

Bad light at 4pm, massive rain delays...

Vintage!

@bbctms @felixwhite @gregjames @jimmy9 #coronavirus #cricket #tailendersoftheworlduniteandtakeover

Just switched back on - what on earth!? England 45-6!!

#Coronavirus #Cricket @bbctms

359 sounds a hell of a lot...

@bbctms #tailendersoftheworlduniteandtakeover

. @Cricket_Mann reminding us that #Australia have no reviews left... might prove costly?

@bbctms #tailendersoftheworlduniteandtakeover

111 to win

“Off stump is going out of the ground. Australia are on the verge of another Ashes victory here!” Says @jimmaxcricket

@benstokes38 and @jackleach1991 with 73 to win

@bbctms #tailendersoftheworlduniteandtakeover

Love the way that in the next 30-40 mins the commentary on @bbctms morphs from “oh well that’s a nice shot for six” type stuff to “OH MY WORD”

Lovely 0-100 ramp up to fit the mood...

#tailendersoftheworlduniteandtakeover

That reverse slog sweep for six has to be one of the most outrageous shots in Test cricket, given everything. 50-odd to win, after all the fighting, and with just one wicket left. How do you grow stones like that @benstokes38??!!??

#tailendersoftheworlduniteandtakeover @bbctms

The other awesome part is how engaged the crowd are.

Loud until the ball.

Absolutely silent.

Then roars again as the pressure is released.

#tailendersoftheworlduniteandtakeover @bbctms

And now Aggers is in to call the @benstokes38 100.

“What a finish we’re all having here!”

“That’s WAY over square leg for six. Well, well, well. 27 needed!”

@bbctms #tailendersoftheworlduniteandtakeover

Alastair Cook “I could only do this on @BrianLara cricket with the cheat mode on!”

Lyon on.

“Gutsy” says @glennmcgrath11

“Down to third man... DROPS it! Not an easy chance”

“Simon Jones moment 2005”

“Oh he got there. Has he dropped the Ashes?”
@bbctms #tailendersoftheworlduniteandtakeover

“Nine. To. Win. NIIINE!”

@bbctms #tailendersoftheworlduniteandtakeover

*The* review. Oh lord what a time to review, knowing what we know.

“Stokes is literally not looking”

Pitching outside leg. Deary me...

#tailendersoftheworlduniteandtakeover @bbctms

“Stokes scythes it it’s six oR OUT.........

IT’S SIX!!!!”

“Oh MY. TWO TO WIN!”

Aggers.

@bbctms #tailendersoftheworlduniteandtakeover

“NO NO NO NOOOOO

OAAAATHRHHHHHHHAA”

Alastair Cook

“LYON DROPPED THE BALL. HE DROPPED THE BALL!”

Agnew

@bbctms #tailendersoftheworlduniteandtakeover

“UMPIRE WILSON!

“It’s not out. No reviews!” Aggers

“Why wouldn’t you give that?” @glennmcgrath11

“That’s out”

“He’s given every one before that”

“They burned off that review earlier”

“Stokes going for the run. Here they come. ENGLAND CAN’T LOSE. THE ASHES ARE ALIVE!

“Well played @jackleach1991. He’s off the mark” Aggers!

@bbctms #tailendersoftheworlduniteandtakeover

“In comes Pat Cummins from the far end to Ben Stokes.

WHO HAMMERS IT FOR FOUUUUURRR

And he stands there with the bat raised!!”

What a moment @bbctms #tailendersoftheworlduniteandtakeover

Thanks @bbctms @gregjames @felixwhite @jimmy9 @itsmattchin. Great fun.
