The BBC's TV commentary team is just god awful, worst I've heard in years.

Someone needs to point out to them that just editing the radio commentary to fit isn't producing good results. Haven't watched today's yet, did they manage to show more than 20 minutes of cricket this time?

People moaning about how Stuart Broad should have been playing because he'd have pitched it up is 'bring back Ian Bell at 3' levels of hilarious.

I think it's only fair to criticise both performance and selection when it's warranted, granted Holder showed his class but it is the same old England batting collapse time and time again.

I don't see all the doom and gloom tbh, West Indies are equally as vulnerable as us to we could easily blow through them tomorrow.

same old technical flaw from Denly.

Technical flaw!! That ball he got was a seed and would have got many many players out.

Is this a joke?

There is literally nothing he could do about that delivery, it was an absolute peach of a ball. No batsman in the world is keeping that out.

Nasser had a good point about Denly though, he does have that habit of planting his front foot. Rob Key played with him long enough to spot it so it's not a new thing by all accounts.

Yes, it was a great delivery, but it wasn't unplayable and Denly has got out to worse balls in the past due to the same technical issue.

He's a very watchable player, and I'm not disagreeing that he has some technical flaws otherwise he would be scoring more heavily.

I'll have to disagree about that delivery. Even the commentators/analytsts were saying that Denly played the right line, but the ball was just too good.

Looked very Bairstow - not sure the batting coaches are really doing a lot.

One who didn't plant his front foot and leave a yawning chasm between bat and pad might have had a better chance, and the point is more how often he gets done by a straight one.

Broad trying not to throw his toys about about being dropped, can tell how wound up he is.

Still failing to see the reasons for playing both Archer and Wood together, Broad would have at least pitched the thing up

You're joking aren't you? He's been one of the worst culprits in recent years for not pitching it up and hitting the stumps. It would;ve taken most of the day before he got it right.

How comes each side has 3 reviews per innings?

Didnt mind that tbf, i thought he spoke well, was honest and gave good insight. i liked what he said about all the bowlers being in decent form and could have been picked.
