It's just a shame it's not a five match series.

Headingly is no longer a seam bowlers wet dream. The wicket has completely changed in recent years. Swann adds balance to the attack and even when not taking wickets ties up an end, plus a good fielder and decent batsman. Matt Prior should be batting six

Heckle from the back pew and you won't have to return

it wasn't very enjoyable - hope it wasn't a full strength side. can't see taylor lasting much longer here. eta taylor played very well.

Totally agree with that. The decison to drop swann is bewildering, and as for putting them in... a decision pontinglike. Cook should be fined half his match fee just for making the worst referral ever

Taylor is a real talent and I hope he does well. I want Finn in ahead of Bresnan as his height, pace and bounce should be effective at Headingly

Great effort On a side note the commentator just said it was a sprint to the quarter finals - a sprint i ask u with Juston Pipe

Ys it should have been a four tester. The one day series against the aussies was a complete and utter waste of everyones time. And yes it's always good to beat the aussies, but that was one thoroughly shite australian team, and i for one would rather have had another test match

Terrible news for all cricket fans. One of the best wicketkeeper/batsmen of all time. I recall the first time he came over to england on a tour was the series that saw the infamous Atherton/Donald spat at trent Bridge in 98. Drs enjoy your day at cricket. Hope it is more fun than my trip to Durham last Saturday.

Fair enough dropping morgan. Bringing back Bopara for me is a strange one - Has had several opportunities and other than scoring three tons against a mediocre WI side has generally flattered to deceive I would have had a look at Taylor before Bopara

If england lose in sri lanka and strauss continues to not score any tons will it be time for him to move aside? morgan has to go for a little rest

Depends on what the bookies want

murder on the orient express i think it's from but i cant help with other half of the question
