I'm not concerned about Burns at all. He scored 147 runs across two innings just two test matches ago.

England's 1-6 for the first time in years looks both competent and comfortable, and most importantly they have all contributed in games instead of Root or Stokes having to dig us out

7 consecutive Tests in Asia - so most likely Anderson won’t feature.

Brilliant 100 for Buttler first as W/K. Here’s to many more

Very good in fairness. That 'wicket' was awful though, given out on appeal and nothing else

Have never seen Crawley before this series - how does he have such a poor first class average??

Should Azhar Ali try part time bowlers for couple of overs and see if the batsmen get a bit eager?  I thought Shan Massod and Azhar have turned their arm over before?

Crawley is such a positive player. An innings for the ages, really!

If someone had told me before the series that Crawley would score 267 and Buttler 140+ in the same innings, I wouldn't have believed them!

He started first class cricket at a very early age and think that may be a little contributor and also Canterbury isn’t the easiest deck to bat on compared to some.
Seems to have come on leaps and bounds in the last 18 months

Think he's one of those picked on potential - like Trescothick, Vaughan and others who didn't have great records in the county game

Azam finding out Test cricket is a whole lot more difficult when you’re not padding your stats up against terrible sides like Sri Lanka and Bangladesh.
