    These silly kids batting this morning seem to have the crazy notion they can save the game. Paah!
    You'll never win anything with kids!!

    The last time India won a Test at Lords the England captain, who had won the Ashes the previous summer but suffered a 5-0 whitewash in the following winter tour, was sacked.

    Just sayin.

    who was that?
  • Agreed. It's the hope that kills you!
  • I'm actually tempted to go up there now ...

    Don't get your hopes too high. Fat Fingers Prior is next to "bat"...........unless he asks for a lunch-watchman ;o)

    The young ones aren't doing too badly.
  • So tense. If we can get to lunch about 170-4 that would be great

    Agree. It's the experienced ones that are the problem!!!

    Joe Root hits three fours in four balls to get to 51*. Ali on 36*

    England need 151 to win.
  • I think England are slight favourites now. Still a few twists and turns to come though I reckon
  • 150 win. 6 wickets.... I'm going!

    I still think India are favourites. 1 or 2 wickets in the next hour and it can soon look like a mountain. However, another 50 runs and we will be fancying our chances.

    I decided not to go today, as I couldn't see us getting any closer than a 70 run defeat.
    I'm watching at home & daren't comment, as I always 100% jinx it.
    Shame Ali took his eye off the ball again. Root & Ali batted superbly.
    It's possible we can do it, but I'm not expecting it.

    Prior gone......

    Let's hope so....truly, truly moronic shot.

    Stokes - even more moronic ! How can anyone blame Cook for those shots ? Pathetic.

    WTF is going on?
    Moeen and Root survive for almost an entire session and lay the foundations to get an improbable win.
    What have Prior and Stokes been watching? This is a firkin test match not a T20 Blast.

    They haven't even taken the new ball. What has been said at lunchtime in the England dressing room? Mindless.
  • Well, I am a jinx. I stopped work and put on TV two balls before Prior got out. I've not turned off again and returned to work.
