Perera to Rashid, OUT , spinning and straightening, Rashid is trapped in the crease - that’s out! S Ravi’s finger goes up, only for Rashid to ask for a review , but I’d be surprised if he gets away with this… He doesn’t, Hawk-Eye has it hitting middle stump, Tom Thumb! Similar to Stokes’ dismissal, in that he probably should have been forward. Dilruwan gets his third, SL just two away from wrapping up the innings now
AU Rashid lbw b Perera 31 (52b 2x4 1x6) SR: 59.61
223-8 now
Leach out, beautiful ball from the bowler that took an outside edge to short leg.
225-9
Anderson survives an LBW call as well, given not out on review.
Curran hits thirteen off an over - two sixes and single to keep the strike. Brilliant stuff.

Curran dropped in the deep from an easy chance. Even Forster would have caught that one…
Next ball smacked for another 6, 50 partnership up.
Currab just equalled Pietersen’s record of most 6s in a test innings by an England (and Wales) cricketer.

Did I ever mention he has scored a 6 in a Test Match AND I saw it!!
That seems a damned fine effort again, hard to see how Woakes / Broad will get back into the team on this tour only real issue is Moeen bowls more his batting gets worse. He bats more his bowling gets worse.
Its 88-2 after the second mornings session we need to spin it better or Hoy it at there heeds and frighten them.
165 - 5 not a bad morning for England.
Let me change that
165 - 6
A better morning for England
