I don't understand why they've sent Anderson out. They declared early in the first innings of the first test with the idea that they'd rather have Anderson bowling for 6 overs than batting for 6 overs. Time isn't on England's side and they've sent him out for probably 10 more runs at most

Can't leave Bairstow stranded on 49, it'll be ten minutes at most before the innings is finished. Plus probably Jimmy's last chance to bat at the original OT.

Why can’t we leave him stranded? Pep has taken many a striker off when on a hat trick
 
This really has been a test (so far) of the maligned players showing their worth. Ali, Crawley and Bairstow all doing a great job. Happy to have had my criticism (even if I feel it was correct) shoved in my face!

23 run partnership and counting
 
This is really taking the piss now. I think Stokes is doing it for the psychological advantage. He wants the Aussie batsmen to go in feeling that England have really got their foot on the Australian neck. Although the weather could make it blow up in his face.

Don’t understand it the forecast is crap for the weekend and a draw is useless for us. Less than 2 sessions to bowl them out?

It’s good, the more they are behind the more psychological edge it gives us. Well done England
