First few balls were absolute garbage but that wicket ball was a ripper.

Feel like the game has slipped away from us now with all these singles

Slightly off topic but them Masuri helmet material that Crawley and Stokes are wearing not seen them before - sorry if this has been mentioned anybody know which helmet they are

Looks like C line helmets with T line double bar grills

He's always carried a bit of timber, but I guess months off unable to do any conditioning work probably doesn't help.

According to a friend who works at Yorkshire, its not a lack of condition so much as too much conditioning.  He's bulked up in a way that rarely benefits a cricketer...

Cummings leading his side to victory here, England being a bit unsure as to how to proceed and leaking important runs

We should not have lost this game

Knew it would be close but it's been a poor last 45 minutes

Great final day, I was convinced England were going to win after Root took that catch to be honest. Well played Cummins and Lyon at the end.

Thought Birmingham was a ‘fortress’ lol

We won a game where Smith and Marnus scored 35 combined. Lovely.

I'll be gracious in defeat. Well played Australia. That declaration looks poor now.
