Hardly a large draw move either

Might suddenly get a rush when the penny drops

Radar looks ok, can't see where it's coming from either

Juggling two games with weather = pain in the arris

Might be too dark for play even if its dry, very dark skies over Leeds and 3 or 4 rapid bowlers

Draw price about right

It’s so dark here

The obvious double edged sword, it may rain but if it doesn’t someone will be bowled out for 200.

At a guess, there doesn’t look like imminent rain to me.

Since 2008, England have lost 5 of their 9 Tests at Headingley, comfortably their worst record at any home Test ground.

Overcast and cold at the ground during Michael Atherton's report on Sky news around half an hour ago, "typical Headingly weather" quipped The Lancastrian deep in the heart of enemy territory. No rose was visible in his lapel.

Too cold for ball to swing?

Keep the spam coming CS, anything to stop your inane tick drivel being spouted throughout this thread.

Hamlin, just an hour before the scheduled start of play, tell us your thoughts on how the first session will go, tell us your thoughts on the weather forecast, tell us your thoughts on Brexit, tell us your thoughts on global warming.

Just don't continue filling the thread with your petty comments directed against a forum regular.

Is this your forum? Whose "us"? Maybe I should just spam some pictures instead. Or perhaps like CS talk about trading a tick every ball and update everyone on his fictional position.

looks fùcking grim at the ground.
Win the toss and win the game!

I suppose the temptation here is going to be bowl first if winning the toss. Not sure that's the way to go myself

Always makes me laugh when they think fast bowlers from years ago were quicker than anything today and every West Indian bowler through the 70s/80s and 90s was 90mph+!!
Cricket must be the only sports that's gone backwards physically!

It makes me angry
As I've always said the pitches were dodgy & uneven
If you face a 70/75 mph on an up and down pitch it feels 10 mph quicker, especially if it flies off a length

fair shout,its a huge test match for young Joe,hope he can find something

Looks perfect for bowling, could see both sides bowled out today

Yeh I'm not backing the draw in these conditions.
