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

Not a single ball in the first 6 overs would have hit the stumps... useless.

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.

I will accept that I have chosen to ignore all the theoretical ways that he could have been out to all the balls he could have theoretically faced and decided instead to focus on shot he actually played to the ball he actually got out to

Least he waited till over 10. Unlike deny who was chasing full and wide balls in the first couple balls he faced.

They’ve played off the opening bowlers

That was a rather mediocre day. Pathetic batting display aside from Bairstow and Moeen who biffed it reasonably well. Bowling effort was dreadful. Did we not watch what the Windies did? Continually bowling too short. Needs a miracle session tomorrow morning otherwise it could be all over.

Rob key just said there was no way denly could have left that ball,he just needed to execute the shot better.

Personally I thought he was a bit unlucky as the ball moved a bit. These things happen.

I would have said that i wasn't aware of a single journalist or broadcaster who has labelled it as anything other than a terrible shot but then I admit that I forgot that sky employ a former Kent captain in their ranks

In September I was weighing up whether to go and watch England in Sri Lanka or West Indies.

Looks like I chose the right series! Havent seen a single ball of this one but the scorecard isnt pretty

Not sure “biffing” on day 1 of a Test match was the way to go.

Ok so who are the CBF selectors axing for the next Test match?
