Me and Alfie boils down to Head v Duckett.... Another reason England need to take a wicket soonish

Alfie...1560
Sussex...1508

Twins...1371

Junior...1264
Red...1235
DD...1231
BFL...1226
Arthur...1210

Gingerpele...1152
Andy...1129
Durham...1111

GJ...1075

Mike...916

Next time it's Leeds. I'm going to attempt to make my coverage venue specific, so for the next round I'll be adding up the scores after a dozen pints and an exchange of frank banter with the neighbours.

Just realised that thanks to my selection and Australia's squad rotation, I had Boland in games 1 and 3, and Cummins in games 2 and 4 :facepalm

Can we just leave the update after test 2 so I dont have to inevitably slide down the leaderboard?

Only Wood, Starc and Cummins have decent scores, and the first two of those not many have picked (though one person has both) and you've got the third. Admittedly Duckett and Robinson did you no favours.

Alfie has Robinson too. I think we'll get some bunching.

I think there will be a big charge from the direction of the north east...
