The empirical evidence of him get a tiny nick at the end of the bat suggests maybe it was too far away

That's a daft claim. Not all dismissals are due to poor shot selection, some are down to poor execution, unanticipated movement, or sometimes just bad luck.

Also this over rate is shocking, fine worthy if you ask me

England have been worse and weren’t punished so hardly fair to suddenly punish WI

Fella, it’s a test match.. no self respecting test better should be going near that..

Other commenters are claiming that aggression is the best tactic on this pitch. Do you disagree?

Bairstow hit a near identical delivery for four. Is he not a self respecting test batter?

I'm not saying we're good and have had our run ins (Cook got fined/suspended multiple times), but 10 overs an hour or so is shoddy; we're not that bad

Pretty happy with our position given where we are. Enjoyable game. 225/250 probably a great score!

Bairstow isn’t a top order test bat. He’s a 6/7 at most.. he is (or should be) a totally beast. However, given the trouble englsnd were in you could argue Bairstow was yet again recklessly attacking ..

Sadly he has no other way

Broad was on for a ton there if Jimmy hadn’t been so reckless and played in a one day manor 🙄

Yes this is a key hour for us let's see if the spite is in the pitch or due to the extra pace windies have.

50p says England bowl too short and don't attack the stumps which you have to do on pitches like this.
