I think you’ll find it’s the England and Wales Cricket Team.

Unless we lose of course. Then it’s the Wales and England Cricket Team.

Correct it is the wales and england cricket team……but its advertised as england V india

And when was the last time a welsh cricketer was picked to play in said team???

but i still say they will lose on the 5th day

I think the fast bowler Simon Jones was probably the last welshman to play in the team. He was a member of the 2005 winning Ashes team.

robert croft maybe after that…….simon jones got injured badly in that serious if i remember, tearing his cruciate knee ligament in the turf while fielding in the deep

croft last played for england in 2004, so yup jones was the last one.

A long day at Headingley today. Always enjoy a day at the test but the contrast between today’s and the last time (Ben Stokes Day) was marked. The old ground looks good. Reminded me of 1981 when I went with parents the day before Bothams heroics and clearly remember the odds of 500-1 against an England win. Wonder what you’d get in India now?

I was nervous this morning! But England played well.

Glad my prediction didnt come true…..superb bowling by robinson with the new ball

day 4 ticket owners must be gutted, only got an hours viewing in the sunshine

India supporters, maybe, and England supporters who couldn't (or didn't) make the morning session. I can't imagine England supporters disappointed to see wickets falling.

Would have been nice to have 2 sessions in the sun though……and still win the match
