• Thank you very much | Diolch yn fawr

    All at JackArmy.net would like to thank everyone who has played a part on this site over the past 25 years whether that is through writing, contributing, moderating, posting or just visting and reading.

    Without any of you the work that has gone into the site would have been pointless and we will always be proud that we built, generated and managed a community that was such a big part of the Swansea City supporting life for so long.

    It has been a pleasure to bring to you the site for so long but the time is now right to turn the lights out for the last time but we do it both with a heavy heart and a sense of pride driven by the so many messages received since we announced the closure.

    The site will remain here for a period until we archive and mothball it for the last time later this summer but all aspects are in a read only format.

    Thank you though for all the memories

    Phil Sumbler

The first session might have been evened up by two late wickets, but there’s no doubting who took the afternoon session.

It really was a stupid decision to bowl first. Hey ho. Four days to go.

Data driven decision apparently. The last six Test wins at Hedingley have been won by the side batting second. So a road of a wicket, 28°c temperature and clear blue sky has little relevance nowadays. Test cricket aye 🤷

The highest first innings score in those 6 matches was 329.

England won the last 5 of those 6 matches.

History aye. 😂
 
India is looking for quick runs now, aiming for 600 to put England under pressure. Dodgy weather is expected later, perfect for Bumrah.
 
I would have bet my left toe on India getting 600 before play this morning. Pant got to his hundred, then seemed intent on pressing the self-destruct button. Stokes has bowled England back into this. Bumrah with the new ball, though...

Take Bumrah out of this Indian bowling attack, and it looks a bit average; even Siraj is struggling.

It’s an intriguing game now, England have been excellent today but we’re only ever one wicket away from losing the rest for 50.
