Hope the pitches aren't this **** for the other 4 Tests of this series. So dead.

Another day, everything change. Right now batting easy

Anderson need to hang his shoe now
Many Bowlers in County cricket who Already Knocking the Door for test cricket

Broad will be 37 on Saturday, he should okay for a while

Baz & Stokes need bowlers who took wickets than just bowls tight spell

Truth always hurts

I think Anderson is waving bye bye after the Oval test like his mate Cook did v India

Under three per over

So they will need to bat around 90 overs in total
