Agreed!
Root looks a worried skipper, he knows what his batters are like!
Owt over 200 to get and there'll be some brown stained England underwear for the laundry staff to sort!

Mmmm, that review was a bit of desperation!
Good hundred, achieved with a big sixer!
We are getting deep into the do-do!
Was there yesterday and definite missed opportunities to get a bigger first innings lead - Bairstow got a good un, but Ali, Pope and Robinson all gave it away with ungainly swipes. Its back to the "too much white ball, not enough graft" style
Looking like a lot more than 200, mac. We’re only just over half way through in terms of time and they look as if they could bat till about a tricky half hour before tea tomorrow with a likely lead of 350 or so and four and a bit sessions to bowl us out.
Turned around hugely since the first afternoon or even this time yesterday.
The day dawns dry, sunny and warm!
Kohli has a big grin on his face as he spies a 300 lead with England to bat on a drying wicket under the hot sun on the last day!
Oh dear!
At 314-6...one more quick wicket and we’re back in it...on the other hand! :confused:
291 needed, 10 wickets in hand.....can they?
Heart says yes, but the brain says 'this is England batting'!
Still, could still be interesting!
Curses, on Day 2 I was offered a day 5 ticket. Score was about 70-5 in reply to 190 at the time, and so declined the offer on the grounds the game might not make day 4 let alone day 5.
Ah well, if I was there we would lose (unlucky Alf syndrome) so maybe for the best
