No the blog is for real - written by women and named by them.

England well beaten by India in the second Test at Lord's.
Both our opening batsmen out for a duck!!
You think Afghanistan is in a bad way? Pah!

Golden pair for Curren which must happen pretty rarely.

Yes
I didn't think The Hundred would be a success - but it has been fantastic.
The women's games especially.
Lord's is sold out for both the Women and Men's final today.
Just hope the rain stays away.
Well not sold out - but a very good crowd

Blimey.
I've just read that there are only three batsmen in this series averaging over 30 (all starting with R): Rohit: 42, Rahul 48 and... Root 128
Still, it's just baffling how - even despite it being an English summer - with two teams in such terrible for with the bat they've managed to make it to the last session on Day 5 in both matches.

Really happy for Hameed who I feel has been treated pretty poorly by the ECB.

Also really pleased to see Jimmy Anderson still bowling like Jimmy Anderson rather than that 5th day at Lords nonsense. England are going to be bereft when he finally quits. He is just in a different class to any other England bowler in my lifetime and has been for so long.

I'm beginning to feel confident that England probably aren't going to lose by more than 200 runs in this test.

Another ton for Roooooooooooooooot!
He could win a penalty shootout for England.

we went through the Indians like a knife through hot butter.
Won by an Innings and 76 runs
just shows how badly we played at Lord's and how well India played
