AUSTRALIA FIRST INNINGS

TMS's Alison Mitchell on Twitter: "Aaaah, watching a touching embrace between TMS's Jason Gillespie and Brett Lee on the outfield (well, a manly sort of hug)"

1048: The early Pub Pontification chat in my office centres on whether Andrew Flintoff is overrated or not. The man next to me thinks he's a marvellous cricketer, but that the hubbub surrounding him whenever he's thrown the ball or he comes out to bat seems a bit out of proportion. The man opposite reckons he's not fit to light Botham's panatella. Obviously, I have no opinion on the matter. h

"If and when England learn to pitch the ball up and only use the short one as a surprise they might get somewhere. It isn't rocket science - look what happened to Katich and Hussey when Anderson pitched it up."

1037: Michael... have you been fibbing? If you email in and can prove to me what these "other valuable things" were, then I'll wire you the money. As for the cricket, it's pretty difficult to know what to talk about to be honest - if we were going to get a full day's play in, then we'd surely be chatting about how long the Aussies should bat for, but the weather forecast is so dirty, I'm not sure how relevant that chat's going to be.

"Interestingly, Michael, who needs a loan, was at a seminar here in Holland yesterday, according to an email I received. Poor lad lost his wallet two days on the trot?"

1028: The weather forecast from Cardiff couldn't really be much worse: the BBC reckon it's going to be an out and out wash-out, although they've already got it wrong to be fair - they were predicting drizzle from 1000 BST, and we haven't seen any yet. Anyone got $2,500 they can lend Michael? I've got his email address in case you're worried about him not paying it back.

"Hello. How are you doing? I am sorry that i didn't inform you about my traveling to England for a Seminar. I need a favor from you as soon as you recieve this e-mail because i misplaced my wallet on my way to the hotel where my money,and other valuable things were kept, i will like you to assist me with a loan urgently. I will be needing the sum of $2,500 to sort-out my hotel bills and get myself back home. Your reply will be greatly appreciated."

1014: Hello. It looks as if we'll be starting on time, which might be a surprise to many of you. However, after lunch Fish and his mob reckon it's going to rain and rain and rain...
