Having actually watched it, Woakes mostly bowled pretty well. He was all over Handscomb but couldn't find the killer ball, just a little too far over when he angled the ball in and hence the couple that went down to fine leg.

I am with Boycott on this one wouldnt  call  leaking runs  on day one after your opening bowlers have kept it tight is bowling pretty well also on day two  unlike Broad Anderson and. Overton Woakes never looked like getting a wicket.

The Australian bowlers have bowled a bit fuller, with a bit of extra pace look like they might get more out of this wicket

We are going to have to take time out of the game and try to bat time,for however long it takes try to get close to a reasonable score.

i don't think we have bowled that badly, but if you are in the field for 100 overs plus there are going to be some bad balls.

Overton seemed to pitch it up a bit more for a guy 6 foot five was good going. Woakes did not bowl his best true, but he is still our best bet after broad and Anderson, he absolutely should of had another wicket when cook and Stoneman collided and messed up that catch behind.

Incidentally I wonder how many of the forum think Root made the wrong call at the toss, he seems to be getting stick in the press.

I thought he made a brave call myself, whatever way he turns at the moment he does not have any firepower to fight back with-so he is stuck whether he bats or bowls first.

Mo Ali is not bowling that well, can't see how he is fully fit...

Root looked at the  cloud covered sky  and  said we will have a bowl Ali has a glued cut on his finger Overton on debut   after Broad and Anderson what did he think  his bowlers were capable of  or maybe he didnt trust his batters to bat long we know the saying  especially in OZ win the toss think about bowling and have a bat again proves to be true

Joker Vince is gone.

Him and Malan are the biggest joke of selections I’ve ever seen.
Was at the ground yesterday and Vince looked like getting out every ball.
Rather play Jason Roy than this guy.
