Why would anyone put Buttler or KP in a side now?

The England selectors have a history of making odd calls, but not that odd

The England selectors have a history of making odd calls, but not that odd

We are more likely to do an Arsenal, go with what we have got even though it clearly doesn't work.

 

[91Jmay]

Root at 3 would let us find players lower down the order which in theory should be easier but if he wants to bat 4 he should bat 4.

 

[Howe_zat]

Gabriel bowling uncalled no balls until he takes a wicket, so we've effectively got a free hit almost every delivery he bowls.

 

[91Jmay]

Gabriel has been no balled loads this game, they aren't not calling them just missed a few

 

[91Jmay]

Stokes playing so well here. Probably cursed him

 

[Scaly piscine]

Argh on TMS Swann just said these runs count double.

NO THEY ****ING DON'T. Muppet.

 

[Stapel]

Stokes playing so well here. Probably cursed him

He was the most economical bowler as well. I didn't really expect to see that, but it is what the scorecard says.

I really hope you've cursed him. He needs to get out now, to make this test just a bit more interesting.

 

[Howe_zat]

Bloke is a rock star.

[91Jmay]

Gabriel looks dead here. Been flogged into ground, really showing up Holder's bowler management

 

[Compton]

Could Stokes be any more important to England?

Everyone goes on about Root and Cook, but Stokes is vital.

 

[cnerd123]

England are still favourites for this game at 41/4 - madness

And this is why

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Looking at the track it isn't doing as much now as earlier in the game. Could be they aren't bowling as well now but it puts any target into question. Can't see us declaring without the game being totally safe now.

 

[91Jmay]

Graeme Swann is one of the worst people I've ever had the displeasure of listening too. What a prick

 

[MW1304]

Could Stokes be any more important to England?

Everyone goes on about Root and Cook, but Stokes is vital.

Having a breakthrough year with the bat in all formats, as weird as that sounds. Has found the consistency we need in a top 6 bat.

Graeme Swann is one of the worst people I've ever had the displeasure of listening too. What a prick

What has he said now?
