Anderson and Broad......

[sadgit]

Why on earth were they dropped.. Still the best we have and as I type, Ohhh Jimmy Jimmy...

Will Young having to leave right now I’ll get me coat

 

[afcb_acklam]

I expect the rest did them good. Great catch!

 

[NormanbyRed77]

Anderson another wicket 2-2

 

[Nosmo-King]

2 down! Jimmy and Johnny show!!

 

[sadgit]

2 for 2.... I am loving this aggressive field, slip cordon of 5?

edit SIX!!

 

[Nosmo-King]

Jack Leach - great fielding effort but hurt himself. I would rather concede the additional run - especially in a Test.

Broad now in the act what a brilliant start from the Bowlers

Broad now in the act what a brilliant start from the Bowlers

And Bairstow

I honestly thought Stokes was the wrong choice.. So far, so go.. aggressive and fun to watch!

Just shows how bad Giles and the previous management were leaving both out of the West Indies tour.......and I'm sure if they were still in charge neither would feature in this series.

Great start, it's usually England who are 12-3, that's why I'm most interested in seeing how we go with the bat.

Obviously Anderson and Broad at home is a no brainer, we need use them as much as possible while they can still play.

12-4, Potts debut wicket

 

[NormanbyRed77]

Another wicket well done Matty Potts 1st test match wicket

 

[Otto42]

Dream start for the Durham lads

 

[sadgit]

the line and length appears so different and so is the catching. This is great stuff.

10 overs and still 5 slips.. amazing

 

[Kosovo]

We’ve got to bat yet and batting is our strong point

 

[Colgates_shaving_foam]

It will be nice if we could start the summer batting without scoreboard pressure, hopefully it looks like it's going to be that way.

early days.....

 

[Nosmo-King]

Cloud cover first thing of day one of a test can be a great help. Bowling has been better and more consistent in line and length. Easy this bowling lark!!!
