We need to make someone else Test captain as it’s clearly hurting Root’s batting. Unlike Kohli, Smith(not anymore) and Williamson all three average more as captain - whereas Root’s average is 20% lower than as a non captain

Glad someone has said this, thanks I’ve been like a broken record
We need roots runs far far more

So the England bowlers watched Ireland dismantle us by bowling good to full length on 4th stump line and have responded by bowling back of a length or a 7th stump line... Just doesn't make sense.

That's England for the past decade!!

46-2 Sam Curran with both. Curran should've taken the new ball tbh. Woakes and Broad wasted it bowling far too short.

We have successfully prepared a wicket here to play to the strength of the opposition bowling attack.  Pick an attack with oave bounce and spin then prepare a deck for 75mph dobblers

That catch right there is why Johnny bairstow should not be our keeper and if he refuses to bat 3 he shouldn't be in the side. Tit.

Problem? that may sort his issue of being bowled driving recklessly!

Shocking drop by Root, it's like it was a forgone conclusion that we'd just batter the Irish

I think he needs someone to go after him to make him a bit more determined to actually perform.

Another drop off Broad, this time Root. You wouldn't guess that Ireland were the new team to Test cricket if you judged the slip catching...

you know one of the worse things about these drops is the fact that everyone will start saying the Broad..... 'bowled really well, and had 2 drops, and didn't get what he deserved' etc.... etc....

Not talking about the absolute tripe he threw down wasting the new ball!

127-2 at Tea. Balbarnie 51*. If the Irish keep up this run rate their lead could be nearly 200 by stumps - lead already up to 42
