    Just been looking at scoring records for the Oval on Times online ......

    the highest innings score was by England on 20th august, 1938, when they scored 903 runs!

    the lowest innings score was by Australia on 10th August, 1896, when they scored 44 runs!!

    how good would that be..... 903 return flights to Australia at just £44 each!!

    fingers crossed!!

    I'd say with prospect of rain could well only be seeing an end to first innings late Saturday poss even Sunday(though of course that could potentially mean high scores)

    7 flights on offer so far.....!

    I think that is really unfair that you lot will end up with less tickets on offer for a higher price than we will pay. ROFL :rotfl:

    Come on England!!!

    No sorry I can't. I heard it on the radio in the car on the way home tonight. I expect there will be more later on as the test won't wind up for a couple of days. MIght be in the paper tomorrow.
