Hope i'm wrong but i have that horrible feeling a batting collapse is on it's way.

Ball reversing with us 272 behind need someone to get 150 very rare someone gets a massive score then backs it up with another massive score! Can only afford one more wicket down tonight preferably none

Root should take some of the Aussies smiths batting trick come more across us crease so he can't be lbw and smash it cross bat!

We generally score at a very decent rate though, so we could feasibly have more than 300 on the board at close.

 

[Dr Jacoby]

Wow

 

[waspish]

Bumrah just been to good reversing the ball and we can't cope!

 

[Dr Jacoby]

Crawley dismissal looking more and more crucial. Extremely talented player, shame he loses his head so often.

 

[waspish]

Stoke needs to smash the ball out the ground and lose it so they need a new ball that hopefully won't reverse

Bumrah is a joy to watch. It takes a special skill for one ball to send two stumps and the bails to all four points of the compass.

Not often you see 2 stumps knocked out.
Bumrah is good to watch, isn't he?

 

[MillionMilesAway]

For the record, I am not @Gabriel...

 

[Dr Jacoby]

Reminded me of a slower version of this:

 

[waspish]

That's inevitable by Bairstow going to be at least 150 behind

Kinell Johnny ……

 

[dickie davies]

Why is he dangling the bat out there?
See off the best bowler and then go on the attack

 

[shemnel]

Got em right where we want em.

 

[BringBackSwales]

Fuck off Bairstow

 

[heslops barnet]

Fuck off Bairstow

Can always be relied on……..

Are you Indian pal?

I'm going off Hyderabad, it's the new way. Mind games. I call it the 'inverse lead'. I've heard it called losing but not in the stokes era.

We’ve lost this Test haven’t we?
