Fucking love Siraj. Can always count on him to demand his piss weak captain to waste at least two reviews per innings.

Yeah there was 2/3 players saying looks like it’s going wide so he could told Siraj nope mate! Like you say weak captain

What a great morning, bat most of the days we will be near to 200 lead or more! The Indian fight might dwindle a bit then..

All depends on the new ball and how Indian bowlers bowl..

Fantastic achievement by Root, becoming the third highest scorer in test cricket. 34 years old now, how much longer could he go on at the top level; 4 or 5 years?

Too little, too late

4 down at lunch but only 8 behind. I’d have taken 5 down by the time they were level this morning so not over just yet.

Hopefully……

Bat for the rest of today, and we could be nearly 150 ahead. Give the Indians something to think about.

Brook stumped on 2? He needs to rein himself in that lad

 

[waspish]

Pope Brook poor shots mainly technique but brook to aggressive hold tight wait for the new ball! Brook seems either a bit dim or to confident! Because that wasn’t the time to be over aggressive

At moment while Roots there we ok he goes that 100+ even a 200 lead was looking at be then down to around 50/75

We bat quite deep. Carse hit 50 in the last game and is due in at 10.

Yeah but this Washington spinning has some drift which will get most out! Plus the new ball with Bumrah

We shall see. It’ll depend on the new ball and what it does. If it’s the same as this one, we could still get a healthy lead.

Twat….

Brook must be very disappointed with that stupid lunge. 200 ahead should be enough though - weather permitting.

Getting interesting for Lancashire. Gloucestershire now 7 down but only 34 ahead.

I would love Stokes to get some runs. He deserves them. But I suppose if he keeps Root company for a long time, that will have to do.
