Exactly, people talking about the declaration on day one and bazball batting are missing the point…the only reason we have a chance of winning the game is because of the way we bat and the main reason we have a chance of losing is because of poor chance/wicket conversion.

Here we go !!! Broady you beauty

Just saying the same to mates. Very un Jimmy like ! Loads off hips and too short. Maybe one of reasons Bairstow didn’t react to nick was cos the previous 3-4 were going down leg (no excuse though)

Yeah, I was thinking that. All you need is a bit more rain to hang around and a massive chunk of tomorrow could be off. Knowing our luck it will be bright sun and plenty of play if Aussies are on top or pissing it down if we’ve got a them a few wickets down !

Im the same. Would’ve been nice to eke out 300 but Robinson did well there to get us close ish. Need early wickets tho ! It’s only the speed we’ve played at that’s made a result possible, could end up biting us on the arse but can’t really complain about the entertainment

Fuck

You could see the thought process behind it though. If we lose it will be down to the numerous drops and no ball wicket rather than the early declaration. *I was saying to mates at the game that I’d have given Rooty one more slogging over myself but 🤷‍♂️

Also need a big one from Stokes. He’s played himself in today so fingers crossed

Every time we start getting on top we lose another ! Not good for the ticker !

Yeah, need us to bat until tea at least really. Not sure it’ll happen though

But so were all the ramps etc, it’s why we’ve got 130 after 26 overs. Under Silverwood we’d have been grinding it out, Aussies would have fielders all round the bat and we’d probably be 65 for 5. It’s frustrating but got to take the rough with the smooth ps that’s not to say we won’t have a...

That over might help He’s a very good player bound to be nervous though. Looked great first innings but was very unlucky, freak wicket. Cummins also looking good though. Could do with seeing him off

Bring on Big Mike !

I have no doubt his aim is to ultimately sell at a profit. I have no issue with that. The fact is the best way to do this is with success on the pitch so hopefully a win win all around

It’s a fair question. I just see it as he’s a step up from SISU. Willing to cover losses - SISU could no longer willing/able to do this, hence Hyam sale. This should help us sell for a stronger position. I also got the impression previously that King won’t be charging the previous crazy rates...

Viks going for 50p ? King out !

Hes got to go play the game. No chance Viks here come end of the window but like Kings approach. Puts the ball in bidders court

Only saw earlier today but Munguia v Derevyankcenko (DAZN) is worth a watch. Barnstormer

Currently thunder and heavy rain over in Birmingham. V dark. Hopefully we’ll only come back out if it properly clears.
