Meanwhile, Australia has some thoughts... #ENGvIND #AUSvENG

I hope India dont force Stokes to take quick singles with his hamstring...that would be so against the Spirit of cricket and we would have plenty of articles from Indian cheerleaders.... #EngvInd
After the second game of the season Amorin will be moaning the lack of players bought in the transfer window... #MUFC
