Story BBC & England Cricket: The Toss!

[Pakistani Army]

That is a dismal performance with the bat by England. They really should have done a lot better.

Superb effort with the presentation mate. Keep up the great works.

No Updates For A While

Well this is the dreaded period where I have got to tell you that there will be no more updates for the next 2-3 weeks due to exams. I told you in advance earlier but don't get your hopes up for an update in the next 1-2 weeks. I know that I have only just started so don't think I have given up on my story because i haven't! I might do an update now and again though!

 

[Pakistani Army]

Sure thing mate. My exams are soon to. No worries.

 

[saladguy]

Is There Hope For England?

 

[saladguy]

Might do another update in the coming days

 

[Highlander999]

Wow bit of a collapse there by New Zealand. Just like real life then

Superb presentation. Had to keep kicking myself to remember I wasn't on BBC Sport Keep it up mate

 

[Pakistani Army]

That is a slight wobble by the Kiwis. They need to go from the Lunch break needing a confident start. If England pick up a couple of quick wickets, the Kiwis will be in deep trouble.

Great works Rob. The presentation is great.

 

[saladguy]

Yeah, the rest of the day is very interesting

The Situation!

Well I have decided not to finish the Test Series as it is very boring and tedious. However I can reveal that England won the series 2-0 with the 1st Test ending in a draw! I will update a little later on in what is to come in my story!

Very nice idea mate. Hopefully you can make this a very good story and carry on with what you were doing before.
