His favourite shot……Jimbo finding new ways to get out
Don't what Faukes was doing there for an hour just getting 1 run every over was diabolical he should have been picking a spot looking for a four!
Few wickets here now could bring us back in the game but I'd expect India to be more sensible in there batting

Not many. Bazball has made people think chasing 200 in the 4th innings is easy.How many times has a score of over 220 been chased though?

See that was it the right choice would he got a quick 25 if he went more attacking when shielding Bashir?
Anyway we need 2/3 wickets here to give me optimism

Or he probably would have been out trying his first big shot.See that was it the right choice would he got a quick 25 if he went more attacking when shielding Bashir?

He‘s not an expansive player. He‘s good at rotating the strike. With 2 number 11s, it’s hard to do that though.

Opening with Root rather than a specialist spinner?

Bad enough England getting battered, but getting battered and listening to Nick Knight at the same time is too much

From being, what, 65/35 to win it at one stage to where we are now. Pathetic.

Pope. Does he warrant continued selection?
He scored his 196 in the first test, which was of course unbelievable, but every other innings across all 4 matches has been really poor, and in this match he couldn’t have done any worse. Twice.

At least he has had a match winning innings as Hartley has with his bowling Crawley Ducket gets us of to a good start and Crawley for me should be getting a big score in one of the half centuries he has got! Stokes Bairstow haven't delivered in there batting!

All good points. Personally I’d persist with Crawley in the side, but Duckett …At least he has had a match winning innings as Hartley has with his bowling Crawley Ducket gets us of to a good start and Crawley for me should be getting a big score in one of the half centuries he has got!
