This batting from England honestly isn't a winning strategy in the long term, or at least I hope so. But while it's happening it's hilarious, because bowling attacks have crumbled time on time again

How long is long term? A winning strategy is precisely what it's been so far.

I know this but the grudging praise makes me laugh. You don’t think any of the great Aussie didn’t bat like root over the years

a good shot is a good shot , whoever plays it


Khawaja played some truly brilliant shots of similar bowling

When you talk about the bowlers not bowling **** balls, it doesn't have to be a reflection on the batsman. Sometimes they just bowl some poo. We've been on the pads way too much all game. It's hard enough to Root at the moment bowling on a decent line and length. Leg stump is a waste.

Looking forward to Brook leaving one and getting castled.

Nah this is just cope for the fact that batting teams have left runs out there for no reason other than tradition. Just like how guys keep getting out driving in England when they'd 100% be better off shelving that shot, they've left huge gaps unexploited just because things aren't done a certain way.

:laugh: As I said grudging praise. Root is a world class player. It’s allowed to admit
