Just shows how bad the decision to bat was yesterday.
Got one at least now.

Smith looking like next man in for Australia? Hope we get Labuschagne before Warner. Him and Smith could be a frustrating partnership.

Jack Leach reminds me of batsman who is brought on in county cricket to give the opposition quick runs to set up a last innings run chase.

Four hours until the 2nd test and reports breaking that Cummins might be out due to a covid close contact.

See we've taken advantage of Cummins absence but not letting the Aussies rack up a score

Pretty poor. But a lesson for English batsmen - even naturally aggressive batsmen play the conditions/pitch. RR around 2.5.
And as I type Warner throws it away

Decent catch that. Looks easy but nearly took Broads hands off!

15 balls faced and smith is calling for new gloves no wonder the over rates are rubbish.

I'm sure there's something in the rules already where the umpire can stop this constant flow of people coming onto the pitch. There was a hundred game in the summer where after 3 balls someone was coming on with drinks and kit!

I think bowling half trackers is always a good bet on decent wicket’s .

Weather forecast for tomorrow is ridiculously hot. With Anderson and Broad knocking on a bit and Stokes not having played much cricket can't see the over rate being great. They might regret leaving Leech out just as someone to get some overs in and give them a break.

Second drop of the day from Butler and that's about the worst drop you'll ever see behind the stumps.

No, it’s just a repeat of the feeble efforts of whitewashes and trouncings past. These England sides convince themselves they can’t hold their own-much like CCFC.

I wouldn’t be surprised, Buttler isn’t a good wicket keeper and he’s in the team on the myth that he can take the batting to the opposition (it’s happened twice in 50 odd tests)

great one day player - poor test player

I’m not sure Burns is any better than Sibley he looks bad with the ball coming in or going across him. Hameeds was a bit of a nothing shot

Really pleased we sacrificed the 4 day format for wearing stupid uniforms and designing ridiculous team logos. That’s really paid off hasn’t it.

Less resistance than CCFC’s first dozen games last season

At least they might drop Buttler now after his latest showing
