    Be some spectacle this. Stokes gets a century. A juiced up crowd get even more hyped and Archer comes out to bowl.

    Rounded off nicely there. 6 off the last ball. Lead of exactly 250.

    Then Root decides to carry on. Numpty.

    Last over. Will lose 2 for changeover. 48 overs to get em.

    Not forgetting those are MINIMUM overs.  I would estimate our over rate might be a bit quicker

    Great innings by Ben - what a player he has become - especially at Lord's this season  - MOM this game.

    Stokes should play at 4 or 5 for rest of series

    get 2 early wickets and they will be shitting themselves - especially without Smith

    Only need 6 an over. Warner hasn't given it up yet.

    What's the point in picking Woakes if you don't let him bowl with the new ball?

    Because Broad had been getting Warner out . No worries mate, Archer got him this time.

    My point is that he is swing bowler, Broad and Archer are line bowlers.

    Shit. I didn't realise you could replace the player that was concussed straight away. So we still need 10 wickets anyway.

    Chances now with 2 down and Smith not there. Come on England.

    I know that and he should've bowled earlier in first inning but I just feel that Root has got this right this time. Woakes is a great swing bowler and will replace broad in a few overs.

    Archer hits the bull again.

    Game on.

    Might have to replace the replacement.

    I am not sure there will be a very long list of volunteers!
  • I know why we had to do it, but we might regret batting on an extra half hour. Can see them being 7 down and bad light stopping play.

    Safer to get in the ring with Anthony Joshua than face Archer.
