Their opening bowler Seales our fate…

I rang my mate an hour ago and told him I’d watch the first 3 England wickets go down and then meet him for the 3 pm bus.

On target.

Ahead of target, depends on how long it take you to walk from there to the bus stop.

Root leaves a ball that jags back and hits the top of his leg stump (the bails actually), that after the previously lofted a ball over the slips, just.

Stokes got carried away.
Too expansive for the situation.

Tea 145-5, better session for England that.

With Stokes, Woakes and Foakes is someone playing jokes or is it a hoax?

Bairstow given out, caught behind…he reviewed straight away.

He was nowhere near the ball, where did the noise come from as the umpire gave it straight away?

Horrid shot though

Changed his mind halfway through…
