One is a genuine bowling allrounder who later became a slogging hack, while the other has consistently been a no.9 with big shots and huge potential but not really made any runs
It's like Botham v Kapil but ****

You’re backing up your point using the ICC test rankings... OK well in that case Ben Stokes is a better batsmen than Kane Williamson because Stokes is ranked 3rd for test batsmen and Williamson is ranked 5th.

Whatever it takes!!!
Broad is like the KP of bowling. Bowler of ATG spells than an ATG bowler.

Which, personally, I think is more valuable in a bowler than a batsman, because you can win a Test match in a session with an ATG spell more reliably and more often than you can with an ATG innings.

R.e Dowrich and the shortball, as a youngster he used to hook and pull a lot, score runs but also get out. He's had the pull shot coached out of him and looks like he doesn't know what to do. This morning he looked like being positive is the better option for him

Shannon and Roach might not allow that to happen if they bowl well. Let's see.

350 should be too much for these guys when they're away from home, and england need to win to win the trophy back. i'd err on the side of having a crack.
Be interesting to see how the openers go.
Assuming they don't just do the Stokes thing again. I mean he could do that David Warner 3rd innings thing so well, maybe they should do it more often.

it depends what the flipside of the bowler is.
gabriel's career has been a bit of both extremes (and fidel edwards before him). when they're on it's fantastic and you can run through an oppo, but when they're bad they tend to melt down completely and be match losers.
bad broad just tends to be innocuous though which is...not fine, but fine.

I think we've seen more value for shots on this pitch than we did in the second test so I think batting with a normal level of care, even at Sibley speed, should still see us around 340+ ahead by the end of the day if we have wickets in hand. That'd be about enough to defend on the last day in the event of a day 4 washout.
