Quote of the day after Harmie and Jimmy Anderson forge a 20 run last wicket partnership,
"It's like watching your house burn down and finding a bonus 20p piece in the lining of your coat."

"After KP was out I returned to a re-run of the Old Grey Whistle Test from 1975, and saw a guitar solo from Lynrd Skynrd which lasted much longer than any of our batsmen."
