Obviously you'd expect some difference, but the contrast between Leach's test figures between the first and second innings is incredible.

Anderson is just a freak!

Guess who missed the coup de gras? First day I didn't get up early enough to see the finish.

Great win though and to be honest I didn't think we would win at the start, so well chuffed.

Next test is at the same venue, so it will be an important toss to win for either side.

Sod’s law that Ginny! You do know that now that’s happened you have to make the personal sacrifice of staying in bed to aid England, in their quest for glory next test.

That over by Anderson was just something else.

He was rolling back the years with some outstanding deliveries

Surprised with the tinkering the only change for me should of been Archer. Jimmy Anderson is in top form saying he said he was fit and ready to go. Biss g he af a good game he should of been allowed to build on this, not a fan of Ali been in poor form for England for a long time.

Ali is a proven test match spinner. Who incidentally hasn’t played tests for a long time. Barring the magnificent wicket and the odd good ball he hasn’t been great granted but he’s rusty.

The stumping was tight but out for me but that missed catch was diabolical (in sporting terms obvs)

Don’t think Leach has been that bad. Ali is rusty-you cannot concede that many on this though. First test since August 2019 and coming off the back of covid.
This feels far too much. Not a good test match wicket.
