And now they're off because of bad light!!!! I'm off to bed, it wont take long till i'm out like a light.
 
Lubechange doing real well protecting the tail...ffs.

Didn’t fancy facing Archer so takes two of the last ball from Woakes to put Pattinson on strike next over. Needless to say Archer too good for Pattinson.

Naive or selfish?
 
Seems a bit unfair to cherry pick out his two best knocks.
Even when you include them his record is poor. And also shows that he has only made 2 tons in 35 innings overseas.

Averages can be skewed by a couple of outliers. His two best innings make up 27% of the runs he has made in 36 innings overseas!

Actually surprised to wake up and see we got to 179. Not surprised to see we lost 8/40 odd though.

It’s a common theme with our batting in recent years. One or two batsmen make 50 or more and the rest give very little.
 
Dear oh dear. Nice to see Warner get some runs but more failures from Khawaja, Wade and Paine. An incredibly fragile batting line up.
 
Poms 4/34. Usually when the top order fails the tail wags so lets hope that isnt the case tonight.
 
Fantastic bowling this. Both teams are world class in that area.

Batting not so much on pitches like these that give some movement.
 
This is great.

One frustration I do have is, why in God’s name do we spend so much time bowling short and giving away runs to the tail.

Broad can’t defend the stumps to save his life and we’ll give him 6 short balls in a row instead.
