Couldn’t sleep so watching earlier than planned and great to see that Malan & Bairstow have continued from the previous day. I cant remember the last time that we went really big in a test match and a big part of that is we havnt appeared to have players that could start well again from being not out overnight.

Go big boys, go big
Oh and I agree about cook got plenty in the bank for me.

England got off to a flyer and havnt looked back, kept the momentum all day, and into today.  Australian bowling just too full too often. No protection fine. Couple chances missed. Simply werent switched on.

Embarrassing to watch Root skulk around the balcony. Ya cant demand a player stay if hes been given out mate, (correct decision by the way, despite hysterical calls on here for Aleems head), this is not schoolyard cricket.

Anyway. Englands test. No fun!  :D

Bairstow seems to be wearing a blue set of Kippax gloves this morning. Maybe just maybe a sign of a new sponsor??

Was it the right decision?? Nothing seems to be conclusive on which glove if any it hit. No hot spot on the gloves and original decision was not out so cant see or understand the “conclusive” evidence that the original decision was wrong.

Blue kippax gloves and "k" logo on his bat handle. These players wants us to find out what bats they use  :D

Terrible batting all round. A great example of how to give the initiative away. Will end up 100 runs short of where they should have been.

Once these Aussies get an opening they do seem to get wickets at at decent rate. Let’s hope our tail can get us somewhere about 430
