Some pictures from yesterday's game at Bristol between Gloucestershire & Hampshire.
An easy win for Gloucestershire thanks to 99 not out from opener Ben Charlesworth... 👍

Shame the weather looks like stopping any chance of a result today. England deserve to win for Root's performance alone, a superb display and handy runs from the middle order too (in the second innings, the less said about the first the better).

Your Lords, Day 2 correspondent can confirm it were a Grand Day Out! N loved it, she got there 90mins before play and saw all the sights before the (heaving) crowds arrived.
Sadly she had to leave just before end-of-play, so missed the streaker 😄
We will DEFINITELY be going again, despite the enormous ticket prices 👍
Attached is a shot of Andrew Strauss's bald head obscuring our view (for info, if considering seats in the Edrich Stand)

Anyone would think Anderson’s retirement seems far away: let’s hope he’s fit for The Ashes.
It was his 31st five-for! 😳👏

I'm just catching up with today's play on BBC iPlayer. Isa just introduced Sachin Tendulkar for his opinion on Pant. The subtitles changed his name to ''touch and send over.'' As the subtitles are pretty good with names, I suspect it was a little in joke.

He's in good nick by the looks of it. Might be after Warnes 700 odd wickets? Surely not?

Unlikely but you never know.
He is truly a master of his art and if his fitness is good then he could get another 20+ Tests.

Some recovery by England. So it's pretty much as you were at the start going into the fourth day. Game on!

Some day (again) today. Tomorrow could be incredible. Won't be easy to rattle through the final wickets, but if we're patient I reckon we should have more than enough time to win it, which would be pretty amazing after the first day.

That looked ok ... 286-8 less so!209-8 this morning! Fair play to India though
Can't see us winning this, but it's been a good match, all the more exciting for having seen some of it in the flesh. N barely missed a minute over the weekend
