Cracking the paves up here.
This is an absolute shambles. No Tests south of Edgbaston ever again I’m afraid.
Good day for England
Rain’s just stopped for the day.
I’m spending the time watching a bit of county cricket (Derbyshire v Warwickshire). Downside: the coverage is pretty low-tech after years of Sky. Upside: no Michael Vaughan.
Some spell by southee this
Good job an entire day was rained off really, if you’re in Chris Silverwood’s shoes. England are in deep shit even for a four-day game.
I think that England should take a leaf out of New Zealand’s book and try to schedule the collapse for when they’re at 350 runs not 110.
Need to up the run rate if we want to give Root and Lawrence enough time to spin them out tomorrow
He really was asking for it.
That’s a pretty incredible missed stumping at test level
might start saying dan lawrence is just a re-badged james vince
Highest score for eight innings by England apparently.
Still an outside chance of Conway being on the field for the whole of this match.
[And an even more outside chance of Burns doing it.]
I’ve missed the days when England needed a 10th wicket miracle to get within a 100 runs at the end of the first innings.
This over will be the end of it but this has been great fun
One run short of his best. Jimmy will be fuming he didn’t get to face more balls.
Really weird that they didn’t bring southee back in earlier. Was very obviously going to take a wicket as soon as he did
Stranded on 8*
Just seven more balls and it’d have been his longest innings since his 81.
