*Official* Third Test (Headingley, Leeds) 6–10 July

400 is absolutely not par if the ball is going to keep decking around like this
Decking is a bit of an exaggeration, around 300 is par IMO given speed of outfield and how nice it is to time the ball. Basically every player has sweetly hit a few boundaries.

Timing is because of the pace of the pitch though which with the movement is good for the bowlers
