Tipical England bat second and pace yourself here's hoping Stokes can liven things up.

The first cricket box was used in 1874.  The first cricket helmet was introduced in 1974. So, it took 100 years for men to twig that their brains were also worth protecting.

All Woakes needs to do is hang on in there  with Joe push the singles and let joe take England over the line.

Under-rated in my opinion.

He's a bit old fashioned in that he's not an obvious star, I guess he does not have the personality of some of the other players.

Quite possibly the most improved England player ever since I've been watching England(1981 !!)

I really really don't understand why every one (on here) don't see the same player I see  :)

I don't think playing against this windes team  is a test for any of the England players or tells you anything  its just to easy.

Well as call the midwife is on the telly(we only have one television in the place ) I'm listening on BBC.

They have Woakes as man of the match.

If sky coverage is a few seconds behind Woakes has just laced one thru cover for four.

I agree 100%.

In fact, by scoring all these runs he's denied Root a century which would have given the new test captain a massive boost in confidence. Woakes needs to be dropped for this performance.
