From Craig, Cambridge, TMS inbox: “Please let it rain! Despite this being the first time we might beat Australia at Lords for donkeys’ years, I find myself temporarily supporting Australia.

For capturing the moment: The Scientist by Coldplay.
Soothes the moment: Have I Told You Lately by Rod Stewart, Originally by Van Morrison.
