Sakande opened from the other end

And Archer wetting himself laughing at the poor guy!

In BOTH innings.

He has 6 Test centuries to his name (and 20 fifties), and averages close to 40.

I'd imagine that without the keeping workload, YJB would go back to opening, so that Roy (3) and Root (4) can bat in their preferred spots. 1 Burns 2 Bairstow 3 Roy 4 Root 5 Denly 6 Foakes 7 Stokes 8 Woakes 9 Leach 10 Archer 11 Broad I'm going for this line up, just so we have a...

Archer for Jimmy, and Leach for Ali - given that Smith's only 'weakness' seems to be against left arm spin. Definitely a case for Foakes over Buttler, too.

Not the point. I'd maintain the same stance if we were nine down at 11.05 on the fourth day, chasing 600. He was fit to hold an end up - get out there and do your best, regardless of how futile the circumstances.

Because conceding the game is even worse than losing, playing like absolute *****. There's still the tiniest chance of weather. We shake hands nine down, to save Jimmy from bothering, and the heavens open ten minutes later, then what?

You asked this question about 20 pages ago, and I answered it then. Nick Browne of Essex.

Have they broken the record for most overturned decisions in a match, yet?

In today's situation, he is right, though. Disagree with @pav above, who said all we need to do is 'defend the good balls, and put away the bad balls'. There is literally no need at all to 'put away' anything. A shocking long-hop down the leg side, is better completely ignored, than trying to...

Or indeed in the rest of this match. This could be our 'McGrath treading on a ball' moment

:eek:

Unquestionably England's morning, just not to the extent that it could have been. They're certainly far from 'off the hook', but with a bit more discipline from the bowlers in the second hour, they ought to be closer to 60/3 and feeling under more pressure. Some really cheap runs there.

WTAF are they DOING!? Just give Jimmy the ball, FFS, before the great start is completely wasted.

Get Sir Jimmy back on. Bored of Stokes' shit pies, now.

Steve Smith pisses me off, because he's a ****ing cheat, with a face you'd never tire of slapping, and whose crocodile tears were pathetic.

It was missing! AHhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Got him!!! BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
