No footwork, shit shot!
Let it go

Smith survives.

Why play at that? Easy leave for a park cricketer.

Inside his head.

not sure he has many, he not my favourite.
my apologies for putting Booney at the head of the fan club, its just he seems the most vocal of the fans

Wish someone would wipe that smug grin off Broad's dial. Can't stand that prick.

Are the English slips cordon closer than we were? Ball seems to be carrying much further.

without seeing any of day 1, my uneducated answer will be that we are further away and that we also have bigger gaps in the slip cordon

[amber_fluid]

Once again we are going to need Smith to get a big hundred here

Another Northern Hemisphere failure for David Warner
If he gets concussed during a Test in this series and is replaced by a left hand batter of similar ilk , it will be either Todd Murphy or Mitchell STARc

field looks like a set up youd have on the kitchen table version of Test Match

Loved that game as a kid.

It looks like Bairstow and the slips are definitely closer when Anderson and Robinson are bowling, Robinson isn't really getting any decent carry through to Bairstow at the moment.

[The Dark Knight]

Oh no

[DOC]

Complete lack of scoring intent see's the undoing of Smith as well. Bit of a pattern.

Fair dinkum the umpiring and DRS is a load of rubbish in this Test. How the **** was that hitting? That was so far over the top it'd bring rain.

How do you really know for certain that was going over?

That looked over the top as soon as it happened. Absolutely disgraceful decision.

Easily hitting the wicket.

Travis getting beaten by the flight from ALI.

England on top. Critical partnership here.

[The Dark Knight]

With a wicket and conditions like this I can't see Joe Root missing out here unless he does something stupid and throws his wicket away.

You’ve gotta appreciate a Root that lasts a few hours, especially when there plenty of pressure from Cummins along the journey

Just saw this and thought of your post- A Reliable Root is what your essentially talking about.
