Yep one of these goes we will be lucky to get another 10/20 runs so I'm just adding 10/20 runs to the current score! So now we are we are a 160 all out that's not enough think we need 220 because this India side will bat well

It'd be nice to see the tail wag, and add 75-100 runs. Ain't gonna happen, though.

This is how root should play leave the see ball smash ball to the others! India be watching these two bat and will bat a lot better than we have! The moister has gone and it looks a ok pitch not like some on talk sport cricket were saying 200 will be a good score Nope for me 280/320 will be a good score against these Indian batters.. Root needs a 100

I always hope someone will wag to a 100

Root doing OK but 184-5 isn't great.

Fuck me just turned tv on and thought I’d got Foakes out. One day someone will prove that superstition is real, and that if I don’t watch then England will bat batter, and if I don’t wear blue socks on a match day City will lose

Well; it's a recovery from 112/5. Another 100 would be welcome.

Think we need 280 minimum this pitch is fine and I think India would of bowled even if they won the toss because they probably new day one early the wicket will be hard to play on..

That session showed Bazball isn't always the best approach.

Just proper test match batting

Shame that Foakes couldn't get his fifty. Root needs to farm the strike, both personally (to get his century), and also to get the total up somewhere near 300.
