Nice to see Bairstow actually catch something. Just a shame it was only a protestor

 

Shame about the slips.

 

Got to take those chances, Root's was tough but fucking Cameron Green would have snaffled it.

Could be worse. England might’ve decided to bat

Aussies looking good for 450+, unless of course they declare with half an hour to go tonight, which is obviously the proper/sensible cricket thing to do !!!!!

Our bowlers are playing trundlerball and our slips playing butterball.

 

Of course Pope is likely fucked (either wholly or partly), so likely a batter down already too.

Wonder if the Aussies will declare before the close to provide some ‘entertainment’ and ‘create some chaos’ by ‘rewriting the rules of test cricket’

It’s fine, all going according to plan. the rules of bazball dictate it’s always better craic to chase a big target in the fourth innings

I said all last summer it was only possible to play that way in English conditions because of the shit batch of Dukes balls. It’s a massive improvement on what went before but that’s not saying much. Get hammered this series and it’s almost all back to square one. Especially as Stokes will retire from red ball cricket as his knee’s fucked and the coach will probably follow

England weren’t at it today, and dropped  a few catches again. That’s a problem. It was also a problem at Edgbaston but the bazball approach isn’t to blame for that

They’ve won 11 out of 14 playing like this. Let’s not piss our pants just get, eh lads?

Let’s hope the realists are wrong and the Branch Bazidians are right
