Wow
Our guys are performing really well in this competition . Wonder how many of them will be involved in the T20 World Cup
Looks very hot so it's likely the bowlers will tire
Not sure about Wright, but David Willey is bowling well atm with a couple of wickets
Pleased I got that wrong but he has made the most of his good fortune
Maiden 50 for Hales at 52*:)
Needs to capitalise and move on
One test and this innings... Definitely not time to be thinking or posting anything about him needing to buck up his form
Alison on TMS pointed out that half his runs today have come from nicks through the slips/gully area.......
So he's been pretty lucky to get to 50 !

yes, that's what she said..........but you don't really aim to hit it through the slip/gully area if there are fielders there

it was a bit unfair earlier lingering on that bloke with the huge beer gut !
Point proved!
that was a bit unfortunate wasn't it........:o:p
Already dropped in the slips and now undone by Rabada's short one with the ball falling safely
164/2 approaching tea
Looked v close to no ball
Eng 167/4
Will Stokes tone it down or play his usual attacking innings , I wonder
What?
It was sarcasm aimed at Nick 'Viv' Compton. what was he thinking playing that big shot in the last over of the session.
I can't recall Chris Tavare ever playing like that in tests.
