    Let's see how many runs Green on 0 gets, after Bairstow misses an easy stumping.
    Was it an easy stumping ?  I''m not in the know about these things so took it as a chance that went begging. Would Foakes had down better ?
    I don't think it was an easy stumping.  I also think Foakes would have taken it 9 times out of 10.  Bairstow probably would take it 7 out of 10 times.  Fine margins.

    I wasn't expecting Khawaja to top score today.

    I don't think Labuschagne was either.

    I can't imagine anyone emerging from Tonbridge school supporting Millwall  ;)
    it baffles me that Daniel Day Lewis is a spanner when he went to school in Sevenoaks. so anything can happen.

    It was pretty regular though.

    Bairstow showing his rustiness. Playing a couple of CC games in May, I doubt he would have had to keep to spinners much. As someone else said, Buttler would have taken it as stumpings are a much more common dismissal in T20 than Tests. You can't keep at the IPL if you can't keep to spinners

    I thought other than that Bairstow has kept really well, the take to get Manus and the tidy take down leg side were both very good.

    Well played Khawaja, he's saved Australia's blushes there.

    All keeper's are expected to take decent catches and they normally do.
    The difference between a good and a great keeper is how many they drop.
    That was a bad missed stumping and he's lucky it only cost 38 runs.

    I don't think anyone would argue that Bairstow is a great keeper and that Foakes isn't a great one.

    I don't watch any significant amount of foreign, non test match cricket, I wonder how many other teams pick the best wicket keeper in any forms?

    So has Robinson. 

    We really only have 2 strike bowlers......1 is 40 & the other is 36.

    Anyone else is slow & ineffectual.

    Wood,Anderson and Broad will probably play 3 Tests each this summer so I expect him to play in the next one.
    Anderson and Broad because of their age and Wood because of his body all need to be managed carefully this series

    If Aussies have a 40-50 lead then Stokes’ declaration is gonna look pretty stupid

    If Foakes ain't playing for the rest of the series then he must be shaging one of the selecters daughters
