That is a great ball Gazza!!!!

Oh, Batty.
When I saw the name Gazza I thought my prediction of a Gary Ballance 5 fer was coming true... :-[

Not been able to watch the game.

But I was led to believe 286 on this wicket translated into a million runs?

One more wicket and we should run through the tail... he said in hope.

Bangladesh have batted really sensibly. Attacked the spinners and now the field is pushed back, now just milking singles and it all looks really easy. There is some reverse but not massive

Really want England to win this series (and in India) but also have £75 on Bangladesh at 7.50 so fairly decided loyalties at the moment. Maybe cash out when the need 10 to
Win and hope Ballance can then produce his 5-fer.

England really are gonna struggle this winter.

The bowling attack is to weak on these pitches.

Those balls from Broad and Stokes missing off stump were beauties...

Spin at both ends might play into the hands of Bangladesh, I'd say call it a day and come back tomorrow Cook

Pretty poor from the spinners struggling to bowl a side out in the 4th innings.

Straight after tea 3 spinners in the side ball turning and bouncing  banglerdesh wanting 100 plus so what does Cook do open with Woakes and Stokes  then brings on the spinners when the batsman are in and have scored a further 20 plus without loss  which hardly shows confidence in his spinners

Batty has bowled well, as has Rashid to a point, but the quicks have bowled superbly when called upon. I still think the way to go is another quick who can reverse it rather than another mediocre spinner.
I wasn't a fan of batty being selected but based on his current performance he should be the first spinner on the team sheet for a couple of years until leach is ready.

Seamers have been our best bowlers home and away for a long time
This wicket is turning square but agree we might need something special to get over the line from stokes or broad

I think Batty has bowled well too...seems like a good selectoon

This Test has been great. I'm happy if either team wins tomorrow, they'll have earned it.

Rashid shouldn't be in the side. Bowls to much rubbish. Get Ansari in and hope he can emulate Al Hasan

Cook's captaincy of spinners isn't great.

I still expect Eng to win tomorrow am.
