Disappointing after a decent start. What has happened to Root and Bairstow’s batting?
What indeed!Quote:

Here's hoping the spinners can do the job again.
With India already effectively 171-0 I think this one’s going to come down to our batsmen, mac. Oh for a return to form from the the two Yorkies. They’ve done it before…just not for a while.Quote:

Well Root/Bairstow it's your turn now, any chance you can make a meaningful contribution to support the bowlers???
Well, they nearly got a half century BETWEEN them! !Quote:

Root is in desperate need of form, we need him!
How do we get one of these to him?Quote:

Duckett! Wow! 2024 style indeed. Can the Yorkies and Stokes provide the necessary support?
Can they indeed?? It's about time they earned their stipend but tbh I won't raise my hopes!!
