The awful stats keep on coming.

Just seen that Joe Root has scored more runs in this series than any other England batsman has managed in all of 2021.

Only a couple of hundred runs to go. It's on, it's definitely on!

What a good time to get one overturned.

Can’t no fucker bat apart from Root! We’ll be holding on with our finger nails for a draw here!

I think India will win this now.

Buttler is struggling with red ball cricket and our tail is hopeless.

I predict industrial levels of timewasting, and some rain dances.

I don’t think England will lose this. If Root and Ali can get together, they should have the calmness to see this out.

I hope you are right, but what do we do going forward?

Call off the ashes tour before we give the Aussies a few weeks of comedy.

Stick with Burns and Sibley and keep on collapsing!
