Disappointing from Buttler.  That's 3 chances that have gone begging of Bess's bowling.

Bess would have decent figures with a proper keeper, feel sorry for him.

Bess looks good to me and that must be disheartening, Jos has had a bad game but that's going to happen as we have all done the subject to death, neither him nor Bairstow are good enough standing up.
But one point yesterday was made on here if you have a specialist and someone as good as Foakes or Read/Foster for example as a batsman you must think any mistake I make I'm going to be out-that must be in their heads and create pressure.

The only times I've batted in a club game with a high class keeper on the oppo you just know if they stand up to medium pace and you over balance you are gone.

You see the difference when keeping to spin, I've kept to medium pace in a league match, get a good spinner on and you cannot judge where the ball is going if it's turning especially down leg side as you are blinded by the batter.

We see this now hurting England, Pakistan have down well but these chances will haunt us last innings I think

Sorry but that’s nonsense. You think Tim Paine has to tell Starc to bowl fast?

I think Starc is given a clear plan and has appropriate fields set. Part of the role of the captain and coach is to provide plans and instructions for bowlers.

If you think that  teams employ bowling coaches and data analysts and then tell their bowlers "(No Swearing Please) it, bowl what you like" then I'm afraid that you're talking 'nonsense'.

Looks like his head has gone completely. At this point would it maybe even be to his benefit to be dropped?

If we lose and Masood's hundred is the deciding factor, Buttler has to go.

We are in proper trouble here. Every Pakistan side I've seen since god knows when have had good bowling. We are batting last against 2 spinners as well.

The chances will cost us I think, either in the next hour or the last innings.

Plus 300 looks pretty good.very good batting but it should of been 250
