so again once the shine is off the new ball we don't look like taking wickets. And again change bowlers undo all the effort of the opening 2 by bowling some very ordinary stuff.

Not sure that attack will take 20 wickets if the pitches are the same as the previous ones

Should have asked how many were charged and how many convicted of domestic abuse etc. Bet that figure is even more damning of the problem.

That's the thing - is Tiktok (for example) really that much better off under US control than Chinese? US media companies just as likely to be pushing propaganda/bias (either left or right). Again i'd rather it wasn't govt control at all but some sort of broad based non-politcal authority (if...

It's where the lines are drawn and who draws them that's important. Where's the safety net against govt censorship that already occurs in the likes of China & Russia?

That battery issue on lap 1 was pretty huge too.

Love Spa - one of the very best tracks. Possibly a bit of rain later to spice it up a bit more - but not like 2021 please. See the F3 has already been delayed after a messy start due to wet track

Poor captaincy from Stokes being swayed by Brook on that review. Why are you listening to 2nd slip on a delivery that may or may not behitting leg stump??

Woakes finally turns up

Should have declared with that Stokes wicket. Have a few overs before lunch

Make a similar case for free speech.

Think we're treading a very fine line atm (like many other "democracies"). Restricting internet usage (whether it's age checks, amount of online time) is still has a feel that there's too much personal information being stored by tech companies, websites or govt.I'm sure AI will find a way to...

Root up to 2. Another ton. Another nice rebuild after a couple of wickets (Brook gifted his unnecessarily)

probably the perfect session. 100 plus runs, no wickets. Really continuing the base to build a big lead.

It's an issue that is going to increasingly come to the forefront - secular law Vs religion (not just Catholicism). One of the most important tenets of Catholicism is the sanctity of confession yet to many non-catholics it seems beyond absurd that a priest can absolve serious crimes and allow...

If ever there was a setup for the perfect Bazball innings this has to be it. Root & Pope take it to around 300 or so then they release Brook, Stokes & Smith to build a monster. Or they bat silly and are 6 down before lunch

That's better from Crawley. he had a look before opening up. That's his problem - only faced more than 50 balls 4 times in last 25 innings.(12 of those he didn't even make it to 20 balls faced). Bazball at its most effective has to be when certain batsmen give themselves a chance to weigh...

he has to be aware he is in "last chance saloon"

fine. he can field at first slip. shouldn't be allowed a sub fielder. Gill moaning about "shithousery" and they do this. If he's hurt he should be batting at 11 anyway
