Wouldn’t want to be Broad when Cummins has the ball next innings

 

[Citizen of Legoland]

That WinViz stuff is shite.

 

[BringBackSwales]

WinViz is fucking pissed

 

[DMA's]

Not helped by 2 of our bowlers being rather injured

Has been obvious for a while stokes can’t bowl

 

[M18CTID]

Vaughan heralding Stokes’ tactics as genius, but if that field setting disrupted him and is ‘genius’, then why wait until he’d amassed 141 before setting it?

Yeah, because every captain that ever allowed someone to score 140+ runs is a shit captain!

Don’t think Lyon wanted to be out there. Awful innings from him

Prob has at 75% now. Hate how often sky use it

Don't think I said that or even suggested it, did I? Just find Vaughan's fawning frustrating.

Better than his racism

 

[BringBackSwales]

We might lose this test by an inch

With all the doom and gloom that's been posted on here about the performance, who would have thought we're on the cusp of having a first innings lead on a flat track against the best test team on the world , who will have to bat last

But you can’t argue that it was one of the most unorthodox field placings in the history of test cricket though, and it might, just might, have been enough to have messed with Khawaja’s head, leading to his dismissal.

 

[Gareth Barry Conlon]

Those 14 runs on day 1 after we declared looking very significant at this point.

 

[Claytop]

Cummins has the potential to do damage.

I'm not denying that it might have been effective. I'm just becoming increasingly frustrated listening to Vaughan declare everything that 'this new England' do as revolutionary and genial. As Jim Maxwell said, why wait 10 hours‽

Not any more

Pundit's corner

 

[DMA's]

With the weather around need Crawley and duckett to play sensibly. Fair play to England we have done really well to get back into this

More the Bairstow squandered chances I’d say.

They should have been 147/5.

Great last 30 minutes for England.

Last 4 wickets for 14 runs
