Can these 2 Yorkies take us half an hour to lunch? That would be decent

We need more Yorkshire born player in the team

Why’s that? If their current squad is anything to go by then no we don’t, they are shite

 

[Wretched Vengeance]

The top three appear to be a combination of, impatient, unable to grasp the situation, fucking stupid, and or not good enough.

 

[BringBackSwales]

Up to you Joe, and Smith

Edit maybe a captains innings from Stokes?

 

[Ric]

In deep trouble now.

 

[mscenterh750]

Stupid fucking batting from Brook absolute clown.

 

[johnny crossan]

In deep trouble now.

Athers agrees with you, we will be if Root goes quickly.

Bairstow looked decent against Lancs

“This is how we play”

if we were 160/3 maybe but at that score its braindead! Our bowlers have to works fucking hard for there wickets we give them away!

 

[Chrisja1000]

That was so poor from Brook. Just survive until lunch. V frustrating

 

[waspish]

Scraping to 170 I see here if we carry on giving them easy wickets

 

[waspish]

You want England play with freedom but freedom needs Brains

 

[BringBackSwales]

For the supposed number one batsman in the world that was fucking rubbish. Let’s see where he is ranked after the ashes

So thats 3 out of 4 wickets thrown away... is this really Stokes and McCullems game plan.

 

[RiversideBlue]

I fancy 150 could be a challenging target. 200 and its Englands

Yep it encourages the opposition bowlers they know certain players will keep going for it!

 

[wattle]

No chance, or very little chance, that 240 is enough

You’ve seen how the pitch is playing yeh? Plus it’d be on the 5th day and the pitch is likely to be even worse. 240 should be enough to make it very tough for them. Getting 240 to set them is a different matter

I’d snatch your hand of for 180

 

[beehive_bob]

That target of 300+ looking very distant now. Hoping that they finally realise they need to bat more responsibly in this innings...they need to keep the scoreboard moving but don't need to score at 8 an over...especially when it's costing wickets.

 

[MillionMilesAway]

Flippin' Indians, bowling at the stumps again!
