Gone like a pack of cards in twenty mins.

With the change in players every test looks like everyone is playing for themselves.

Check Anderson and root changing woods position, that's a poor sign for the team. Anyone who has captained before knows your best most experienced bowler gets the field he wants, especially at the start of the innings. Anderson knows where he wants fine leg

Doesn’t matter where your fine leg is when your main Bowles getting biffed back over his head.

Campbell taking andersomnout of the attack.


Moeen gets the ball. Get wood on while the balls hard!

What’s the point of playing Wood if by the time he gets a bowl the ball is 20 overs old?

England getting battered, Anderson gets warned for being in the danger area.

This seems to happen far to often?

Extra pace needed to get something out of all 3 of the wickets we have played on.

I think Wood should have got on by now just to see what happens if he gets it thru quicker.

Oh we have just bought a wicket

Bairstow looked like a walking wicket. As soon as he came out windies looking to angle to ball in and wait for him to play a stupid shot.

How is he so highly rated by the England setup?

He had a purple patch and now people think that’s his level.. tbh, since he decided to get back into the white ball side he’s been declining as it’s compromised his mentality and technique. Regardless what ECB fans say.. he’s simply not that purple patch player

Bell's stats are padded up by bullying subcontinent teams in England, often hiding at 5/6. Read on another forum that Bell averaged over 70 against Bangladesh/India/Pakistan/Sri Lanka in England. Throw into the mix he scored 10 centuries in 38 innings at home against poor travelling teams.

Bell was vastly overrated on the basis he very elegant/easy on the eye. Bell's average of 42 shows that he was a pocket holder for the other superior batsmen. In yeaers to come, when historians speak about us reaching world #1, Bell will merely be a footnote

42.. what’s our nearest current test avg in this match barring root?? 35/6??

42 looks quite good suddnely

Bell would struggle to average 22 against Australia let alone 42. His ship sailed along time ago

Probably.. no one will know

Still, can’t be any worse than what we have now or waiting to be given a go (Roy Etc)

I’ve been a critic of wood, he’s actually back up bowling at 90mph

New run up looks better then his previous.
