  • S Curran always seems to grab an important wicket or two, which is always a handy thing to have in one of your bowlers. 
  • We've dropped 1 in 4 slip catches since 1st Jan 2019. NZ have dropped 1 in 10. That is a massive difference in terms of winning and losing games.
  • Anderson and Robinson doing the work…
  • This is turning into one of those maddening games where we get back into it, then the tail wags and bangs us square on the nut.

    England bowling well without luck. Broad seems to be off the field. Bodes badly
    He hasn't bowled for 2 months 
  • No insightful comments on the game but lovely to be back at a test match today.
  • Game is beautifully poised. Hopefully it stays dry now 
  • Nice ground. 
    Frustrating weather. Im actually sunburnt. 
    Tomorrow’s weather looking worse at the moment but it changes v quickly. Fingers crossed.
  • Trent Bridge is a nice ground, though quite small when compared to the other main Test grounds. Nottingham is a good place to visit too

  • The whole England team look 50% of what they should be. 

    Maybe the tours in lockdown conditions have really taken their toll. 
  • Play whoever's in form and not dogged by demons. Get Vince and Hameed in there
  • The problem now is which one of the top 3 should be replaced by Hameed for the next game. 

    All down to Silverwood, he can't share the blame with Ed Smith now
  • Sibley the man in possession and also the man who could make a score today. I know we're all sick of him but he does have this last shot...
  • It isn't down to Silverwood though. The ECB is to blame

    He's not responsible for the lack of red ball cricket or the 100, but he does have the responsibility for picking the squad and side

    Nice bar just outside the station. 
  • Umps (well, Kettleborough mostly) have been fucking terrible gotta say
  • Rooooooooooooooooooooooootttttttttttt!

  • Really enjoyed the morning session..there really is nothing like test cricket. The skipper must now go on and make a big century now..he has everything in his favour..he mustnt do one of airy fairy shots and get out for a fluent 60 odd .Sibley just has to carry on doing what he does. 

    It would be good to get the Indian pace bowlers to bowl lots of overs..I am not sure they have the stamina for it ...

    The key is root he must bat the whole of the next session 
  • good solid battling by England this morning .. love or loath him, at least Sibley always shows a lot of grit and determination .. but he really needs to develop some more run scoring strokes
  • Sibley is fine with Root, as Root is such a busy player who scores quickly without taking risks

    All of the top 3 are at risk, when you consider players with similar averages being dumped after far fewer games
  • Well, Sibley ate up 130 balls. Enough to secure his spot? Let's hope not
  • Sorry way to go for Sibley...if he takes so long to get 27 he must have the ability to press on ...boycott he isn't 
  • India slowly working out that you simply shouldn't drop your best bowler
  • India set the trap and Bairstow falls right into it.
  • Siraj reminds me of Wade, all mouth and not much talent/speed to back it up. 
  • Maybe I am being a little too fussy but that's two wickets and two send offs from India this session 
    .poor 

    Bairstow must be wanting to kick every cat from kingdom come at the moment. Great shame he was batting well. 

    Root batting well..needs to score 150
  • Bairstow is consistent if nothing else
