And here it comes. From 206/1 to 253/4. Will we get to 300?

Oh no, Jonah has arrived…

Fuck me stokes what are you doing?

 

[Uncle Wally One Ball]

Those patches of rough for the left hander look like a nightmare with the spinner landing in it

 

[heslops barnet]

Reverse sweeps/paddle shots…….imagine Boycott?

The good and bad of England there! In such a good position, with no need to rush it you'd like to think Brook would just ease himself in rather than come out and be so aggressive.

But as much as it is a bit of a collapse, if we lose another wicket now it's still only 21 runs per wicket to make it... but it's now a little more nervy though I'm not behind the sofa just yet!

Now?

I got on earlier at 7/2 and then at 12/1

Butcher and Nasser sounding like a TNT commentary team with England cast in the role of City…

Looking at all the scorecards from this game, it seems it’s hard to get in, but once you are, runs flow.

What a great cricket match this is ebbs and flows

We've seen it a million times before and not just with England - a team can be absolutely cruising but a couple of quick wickets can completely change the complexion of the game

Oh no, Jonah has arrived…

Thanks for your input.

Assume they'll take tea now?

Although 37 odd overs is a lot to bowl after the tea break

Nail biter now, but I still make England slight favourites

Extra hour

For me, it's the purest form of the sport. I get the appeal of the white ball game; fireworks, music over the PA, great for bringing the family to, and a result at the end of the day (weather permitting). You can keep your hundred, though! But a five day test is the ultimate challenge. It's chess on a cricket pitch, when it's between two fairly evenly matched sides.

Take a draw now.
The English psyche at cricket and football = shit the bed.




(Oh - and some supporters)

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Why do Duke’s balls go out of shape so easily these days?

Is it because the bats are bigger and the balls get hit harder?

 

[lefty goldblatt]
