Foakes becoming a better player by the hour.

Fair play to VVD and De Kock currently... They are trying to save the game. This is good to see rather than reckless 'counter attacking' . England being made to work rather than just sit back and wait for the batter to give it away.

Funny how India and Australia select Saha and Paine over Pant and Carey but we don’t pick Foakes...

Pretty sure Graeme Smith might kick QdK in his nuts if he gets out slogging

de Kock isn't going to last as long as Denly is bowling

why?? If you're not good enough to take wickets when batters aren't slogging (sorry, 'playing positively') then you don't deserve to win. However, this is when Root and co earn their corn.. you have to tempt them into shots.. into a mistake... Another skill being lost sadly

We essentially need 5 good balls out of 40 overs. I’d back the bowlers every time

If you don't back your bowlers then you probably need to look at your bowling line up. However, this is a good game and both sides would come out happy with a draw as both would deserve the draw where as neither side really deserves to win (as of yet)... Bit of magic, bit of brain dead batting or sheer luck needed.. this is when it gets exciting though!!!  nearly... Mr Root.. nearly.... VVD drawn into shots...

this is perhaps why 5 day tests should remain in place, short form stuff fine there is a format that most can like

but leave the purest form alone

please!

Brain fade batting or Luck it is then.. Just got to keep doing the right things.. get some fielders around the bat.. England seen really defensive in the field... Make him play shots! Get a man at bat pad.. short leg.. maybe around the corner .. just keep changing it up but attack attack attack
