Good review from India gets Bairstow out LBW, Umpire originally gave it not out

Bairstow gone for 29

138-4

Just as well we played the extra batsman…

155-6. Lawrence and Buttler both ducks. But nevermind ECB, as long as all those families are watching circus tricks and ā€œgreat death bowlingā€ who gives a fuck about Test matches?

Root gone for 67

155-7, we’re fooked, Indian bowlers have got the ball on a string…

Ollie Robinson gone for a duck, lobbed up to mid on going for a shot that just wasn’t there.

155-8

Broad gone plumb LBW, Bumrah (the Everliving) with the wicket.

160-9

Out swing, ball staying low, everything…

Gives us more time to switch over and watch Scampi Fries v Pork Scratchings.
