That whole fielding performance was a shambles.

You have to wonder how much of it is also down to Morgan not being around.

Not sure when we needed wickets Archer has only bowled 3 overs as well.

Possibly because he went for 34 off those 3? In a tight game he was expensive and didnt take a wicket

England fielders had eaten lots of pizza before their fielding. Pizza slows you down.

Has this been scientifically proven?

Hardly. The Aussie bowlers are giving absolutely nothing away and he was on the end of numerous top class deliveries.

Jason Roy on the other hand...

Morgan wanted the team to be exposed to be more difficult pitches. And here we are.

What’s Billings in for, putting so much pressure on Bairstow!

Rubbish losing games but it’s a definite area for them to work on, if it’s by design then I agree with what they’re doing. Worth losing a series or two to work on the one weakness this side really has.

I reckon Jonny bairstow is using an SS bat, seems to be one of their new ‘s’ logos on the edge? Probably off Moeen...

Have to say that even if we do lose this has been a very impressive batting display from Bairstow; really had to dig in against his natural style of play...

Hopefully batting himself back into form.

I'm still generally critical of Billings, but this has been great from him

Would tend to agree on Billings. He needs to produce more innings like this to convince at the absolute top level but this is doing him no harm.
