Too much to ask for I suppose. I don't expect England to get close to winning this but a decent fight in this innings shouldn't be too much to ask for surely?
Final of the World Club Championship in Qatar. The female members of the refereeing team are explicitly told to avoid any contact with the Shiekh by the President of FIFA.
My late dad was a big fan of Van Morrison and saw him play live several times, he reckoned he spoke about 20 words to the audience in total between all the gigs.
It's an absolute embarrassment for a test match pitch, for divots to be flying out of it the way they were on day 1 is a joke. Of course, nothing will be be said about it because it's India.
Quite an impressive heads gone by Karolina Pliskova in her loss to Karolina Muchova in round 3. Pliskova was given a warning when she smashed a racquet after losing the first set 7-5, then left the court and smashed another in the tunnel. She was docked a point on her return after an official told the umpire about it, then she had a rant that she is allowed to do what she wants off court. She then went 5-0 up in the second set before losing 7 games on the bounce to crash out in straight sets.
I haven't a clue what Price was trying to do with that attempted kick through late on, you just keep going through the phases and hope we get a penalty or somebody makes a good line break. Cost us 70 metres of territory.
Good to see Knox doing well, finding some decent form again after some injury problems. Speith having another good week, hopefully signs of a turnaround for him too. Max Homa hit a 2 at all four par threes, a rare feat.
Van Dijk was injured after the transfer window had closed, but you are right that they should have been lining up a centre back to sign as soon as the window opened in January. They are missing Henderson in midfield as much as they are missing the defenders who are out.
