Our record at Lords v Australia is terrible. Two wins in 89 years.

Ive reflected and still don’t buy the argument that if the declaration had resulted in a couple of wickets Stokes would have be feted as a genius. This is Australia, you just don’t give up the domination that Root had over their attack at that point. When you have a foot on their throat you don’t take it off to try and get them in an arm lock. I think Stokes will learn from it and adapt.


I’m glad you think so but I don’t think Stokes will see it that way at all, if anything I think it will promote bazball on steroids!
Fine margins isn’t it, if Bairstow did not have a shocker with the gloves and Broad hadn’t overstretched…

The toss feels like a big event already!

It went our way, and we are bowling.

Let's hope we rip through them, because if we lose this test, the Ashes are done for us.

The protester is the only thing Bairstow has held on to, in the last 2 weeks. 😏

Root’s was a difficult chance but Pope’s was an absolute Dolly!
We cannot afford this sloppiness!

Indeed, Broad will be fuming. To make the decision to bowl pay off we need to limit them to under 300. I assume the decision to bowl if we won the toss was made once we had gone in without a front line slow bowler

We've let the Aussies get on top.

Not looking good.

Green pitch and perfect overheads. Sloppy fielding and less than stellar bowling at times has cost us for sure.
