So not having scored many runs is not obscurity? But having scored lots of runs is?

Seem to be getting stuck up on Semantics here. If 'obscure' is causing confusion please change it to whatever you see fit.

The crux of this conversation is whether you would rather pick Sibley, Burns and Crawley or Mitchell, Dent and Slater.

I think 2 of the first 3 will have long succesful, international careers. Im on the fence about the 3rd.

I dont think the last 3 will ever be near an England squad in any format.

I agree that those three won't play for England. But it's not because they've scored too many runs in county cricket. It's because they haven't scored enough.

That'll be Lawrence out of the side for the rest of this series then.

God it's so good to see Moeen back clubbing 6s.

If you're not enjoying this then do you really like cricket? 250 strike rate in a test match 😂

Not going to win many matches rotating your team like England have.

The morning about the pitch will carry on but Ashwin scored a 100 on it. England need to look back at their dismissals in the first innings, probably only 1 was down to the pitch

Don’t think the pitch should be used as an excuse, I actually think a game under lights is just what we need to get back.

It’s 1-1 at the end of the day not 0-2.

I think we will make a couple of changes for the next game, Bairstow will play I think

Get Moeen up to open and let him go out and hit 6s 😂 it won't be very effective but it'll make the 4am wake up much more worthwhile!

Alex Stewart hit the nail on the head - only root’s dismissal was from a ball misbehaving. The rest should look at their shot selection

He’s been rested for the next game so the fun is over!

If you'd said we'd be 1-1 going into the D/N game I'd bite your hand off

Yep totally agree. No need to go nuts about this test. And we may have the best chance under lights with our seam attack.
