Rain is due around the Lunch period, so more overs may be lost anyway. Cook has to be bold and declare well before Lunch and get a few overs in before that happens.

He may not have to now..... Can't see Broad and Anderson hanging around for long

I don't like Stuart Broad. He is a bit of a dick.

From BBC:

You know that kid who never thought he was out, even when his stumps were splattered six feet behind him? Broad may have been that kid. "If I'm out, then I'm taking my bat and ball and I'm going home".

Poor batting. He seems unaware that the way to secure the draw is to dead bat everything. And we've only got one wicket left.

Maybe wait for Root to get to 190 n.o. then do it?

Yet another SIX from Root.

I was going to ask if he thinks this is a 50 over game, except he's not pootling along at 3.5 an over/

England 464 all out

Anderson run out, not running his bat in... looked a bit odd tbh

Joe Root 182 not out, 229 balls, 4 sixes and 17 fours

Good session for England and the game moving on nicely... 20.1 overs, 91 runs and 4 wickets.

England lead on first innings by 165 runs

What a absolute **** wit Anderson is. What a cock. Don't care how many wickets you've got, you're teammate was looking on for a double hundred and you can't even be arsed to put your bat down. We are a friggin shambles even when things are going well.

Don't know about Root fuming, I'm bloody fuming! If we can't get simple things like that right, we really are f*cked.

Sounds like Anderson has been in Chris Broad's company for too long.

Yeah, see Jimmy's reaction when some fielder or other doesn't keep a pair of batsman down to a single or whatever - Fine bowler but a bit of twunt. I won't be disappointed when we see the back of that group, Prior & Swan gone, Broad and Anderson still to go.....
