Woakes shows in this match  he can't play the short stuff

Better than the top order who seem determined to show they can't play.

There’s not many batters who could play that one!!

Where was bumrah at the start of the series?

BUMRAH was recovering from an injury and was not fit

Moeen can't bat 3 in Test matches. He's scared of fast bowling and the Indians are a damn sight faster than anything he'd have faced against Yorkshire

Bumrah gets his Michelle and Rahul has seven catches in the match. What's the record for a non keeper?

Eng really needs a new captain. Root doesn't cut it. You can't just sulk and scowl and given polished press conferences when under the pump. Perhaps one of Butler, Stokes, Bairstow? Let Root just bat.

India didn’t even last two days in the last one......... We are bad, but maybe not as bad as we think.

Yes good point . We did however have massive advantage in conditions at Lords. India have come back brilliantly.

It's the manner in which we collapse I get annoyed about. I don't believe this can't bat for a day stuff always said.

3 months ago no one would of predicted butler would play let alone change his game for a hundred. If he can do it, they all can

Surely that’s what test cricket is about? Over 5 days, conditions will change and Mastering the conditions, and using them to your advantage?

I can’t rmember who now, but didn’t a teams declare there first innings, while behind so they could have a new swinging pink ball under lights?

Yes exactly, but this is England and its swing around d all match.the fact is India have bowled and batted better in our conditions, so credit to them.

I think teams may well of declared behind in some games for red ball not just pink ball cricket. They may of thought then they have a long tail so not many more runs would come, and it's best to bowl so certainly county games that would of happened.

Today thou most players can hold  a bat plus there's loads of protection available. If it's dark and overcast you may not of wanted your tailenders to face sylvester Clarke with a set of green pimple gloves and a school ruler for a bat.
