Nowt new there then
Standard.
Is it just a first session thing, do we think? One of those where the batsmen just need to show real gumption, then they can have some fun? Or are we going to collapse anyway?!?
No idea, Iām not watching it, but the latter must have a chance
Looks green.
Iāll lose my connection at 3pm when I board the ferry and that will be it until I get home at 3.50
Sounds like Denly played a nightmare shot?
I didnt bloody see it! I left the room momentarily
Pitch has variable bounce. Hussain just pointed out three consecutive deliveries passing the batsman at different heights
Denlyās dismissal was horrible, an ugly swipe at an absolute pie, without moving his feet. Toe-end nick.
Holder making it do all sorts!
Root, gone!!!
Ball reared up off a length, hit his left glove, flew to third slip- I think - who parried and gully anticipated to take the catch diving behind him. Unplayable.
Jolly good
Two fine boundaries from Bairstow off consecutive balls from Holder. Really tense atmosphere
Bairstow, counter attacking is 37/44
Buttler gone! Caught at slip on the walk. He had been trying to mess up Holderās length for a few deliveries before but holder got one to bounce, which buttler had to play atā¦
Just got in to see that. First ball after I turned the telly on
Bairstow certainly is going for it.

Just watched the replays of the 4 wickets to fall. The Denly dismissal was horrible. Root just got a snorter, I donāt think that even *Rahul Dravid could have negotiated that.
*best player Iāve ever seen on a bowlers wicket.
