England will probably need to score at 4 per over, doable but a tall order in test cricket

They scored 383 runs in 88 overs on Day 3 @ 4.35.

That's what they'll need to do again today.

I feel like chasing the win would be a mistake. Doesn't take much to begin a batting collapse. We're already 1-0 up in the series so take the draw. There would be lots of positives to take into the next match.

Yes but it’s always extremely harder on the last day of a test match.

They also collapsed on the morning of day 4 whilst “going for quick runs“ @3.98.

No, they didn't.

They got where they wanted and started trying to smash it about with no regard for their wicket.

You can't have a collapse when your approach is "slog it until I get out". If they needed to see out another 30 overs, they wouldn't have gotten out.

No, they didn't.

Not in your mind, no, but that doesn’t mean it didn’t happen.

You not knowing what a collapse is doesn't change the meaning for everyone else in the world.

I could say the same for you.

You don’t get to define what others think.

Sorry, Mr Fun Sponge.

You‘re like Jeff Sterling without an iota of humour.
