Sux?
Actually his overall record is very good. We’ll see how he goes tomorrow. At least he is an all rounder who all rounds unlike the kiwi one
-
Yeah he does (in England) contribute all round but his primary job is bowling and I don't feel that without Broad and Anderson, we can carry him if he continues with his overseas form. No matter what he adds with the bat.
Cue, match winning innings from Woakes.
if only.
-
England won the toss and will....bowl
-
No surprises there, the surprise for me will be if we successfully navigate first session without too much loss
-
Bowling first is always a bit of a risk, if they don't run through our top order in the first hour we are suddenly on top. Just need to survive, comon lads!
-
Stokes: "The wicket generally gets better and better here as cricket is played on it. There's a nice covering a grass on it so hopefully, we can get something out of it with the new ball.
Edit:
Latham: "We were going to bowl, but if you bat well in the first session, things can get a little bit easier -
Oh shit this isn't on Sky, it's free to air! That's awesome, so many more people and kids will be able to watch
-
That's an excellent catch. Not great from Conway though, needs to play with softer hands against the new ball on the first morning of a test
-
That is indeed an execllent catch @No-Quarter

Check his front foot!
Conway or the bowlers? No balls are done by the 3rd umpire these days I think?
-
@No-Quarter I was facetiously hoping Atkinson had bowled another no ball.
-
That was a very tight leave from Latham, but it did show the benefits of being able to leave balls outside off. Woakes immediately over compensated and was put away for four, and even the ball after that was too straight again
-
Not happy losing a wicket early but 4 po is a good start assuming not just from edges. Happy with that
In the other camp though probably run rate not fast enough for this current England team, but hopefully that attitude gives us a chance when we bowl
