1046: Hold up - the covers are coming off! What’s that Start at 11.15am1042: No news yet on any declaration, but you’ve got to think England will call it quits at 311-6 and a lead of 521.1035: Keep your panic housed, though. It’s by no means set soggy for the day - most likely to be on-off, and the drainage at HQ is a thing wonder. Remember that Test two summers ago against India when dolphins were swimming round the outfield at 12.30pm, and by 12.45pm dust-devils loop-the-loop from extra cover to long leg
1030: I won’t mess about - it’s raining at Lord’s, and the covers are on. We’ll have a delayed start.
