Can't abide the music, even though some of them are great tracks, or the ads.

fussychica · 14/07/2019 15:40

Bugger!

Bluebluered · 14/07/2019 15:44

Have to say, it would’ve been nice to have had an Asian team in the final. The crowd is dead. Wish I was there to scream/chant a bit!

😂 considering how hard it was to get tickets, and all those people in Trafalgar Square, you’d think the crowd would be a bit livelier!

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 14/07/2019 15:47

Not feeling confident 😩. Flitting between the cricket and Wimbledon mainly because the cricket has my heart racing.

Bluebluered · 14/07/2019 15:56

This is the liveliest the crowd will get: 😂😂😂😂

That is hilarious.

Jsmith99 · 14/07/2019 16:19

FFS Joe!

That was two brainless swipes in a row. Credit to the Kiwi bowlers for putting him under so much pressure, though.

howwudufeel · 14/07/2019 16:21

Joe!

LeglessGiraffe · 14/07/2019 16:21

Not enjoying this at the moment, too tense! NZ bowling has been excellent. A swift Morgan ton would be most welcome!

PolkadotsAndMoonbeams · 14/07/2019 16:23

I thought there must be a thread somewhere!

I've been going between one about TMS being comforting, and the one with the OP complaining about her DH swiping her laptop for the cricket when she has tiny twins.

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 14/07/2019 16:23

C’mon you blues. Come on Eoin nows the time for a captains innings.

JacquesHammer · 14/07/2019 16:24

Definitely a bowler’s pitch.

PolkadotsAndMoonbeams · 14/07/2019 16:30

A friend (not a cricket fan!) has just popped round to pick up some programmes and has said "They look like they're playing in their pyjamas, I thought they wore white?". Grin

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 14/07/2019 16:32

Johnny!

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 14/07/2019 16:32

Don’t think crickets coming home!

howwudufeel · 14/07/2019 16:33

Spot on Jacques.

fussychica · 14/07/2019 16:35

Oh dear. We're on the ropes now, with a poor run rate to boot. Think you are right Though unfortunately. Mustn't give up!

Jsmith99 · 14/07/2019 16:35

241 now looks like a decent total. This is going down to the wire...

Bunnybigears · 14/07/2019 16:37

There was more atmosphere at the bairns cricket match this morning! Do you think it's mostly corporate tickets taking up the seats or something?

Ginnymweasley · 14/07/2019 16:39

I just can't cope with the tension.

MotherOfSoupDragons · 14/07/2019 16:39

I don't think it will get as far as that, Jsmith. Sad

Seeline · 14/07/2019 16:39

I think because there are lots of people who bought tickets hoping their team would be there and haven't made it. The crowd are watching a match rather than supporting their team.

I've been to quicker test matches though!

JellyfishAndShells · 14/07/2019 16:39

My DH is a Kiwi - I am not being so foolish as to venture any kind of remark to him atm.
