Dan Wells, Will Howitt, Ben Holl, Duncan McLaughlin and Nathan Long- better known as Fred, Fred, Fred, Fred and Fred Flintstone have had a great time today.

The Bristol based group are here at the test for the first and second days play and are willing England on to victory. Unfortunately though when we caught up with the lads at Tea their mood was somewhat hampered by the score of 185-6. “300. That’s what we’re going to need” said Dan, the others agreeing that another 120 would need to be a minimum for the home side.

It’s the groups first trip to Trent Bridge and despite the “average to poor” start from England said that the host ground was very nice and welcoming and predicted a 3-1 England win in the series.
