I can actually see the point in the lone working thing.m.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-26039556
However to the rest of tbe UK, this is of fuck all interest. I can see Londoners upset obviously. What's upset you today? If anything?
Edit. Cricket chat is good.

He is still "probably" our finest batsmanBut you have to wonder what else he brings to the team, leadership? harmony? etc.
1 trick I always felt they missed with him was not using his bowling more, he was a pretty decent right arm spin to start off with and should have been given more overs

TGGI^there were many times, certainly early on, when we could have used a bit of part time spin just for something different and he should have been that man.

They seemed to prefer bowling Root to him recently, at least KP could turn it. He could have been a decent all-rounder for England after Flintoff left a hole.(
