He'll need someone to stay in at the other end for that, and we're running out of batsmen.

Hopefully Stokes hangs around with him. But can see him going into mad mode tomorrow if they both still at the wicket n the morning

He needs to hang around as long as possible, long time to go and the lead isn't great.

The shot Brook played through the covers when the spinner was bowling outside leg stump was pure class. He was virtually off the pitch.

Another excellent day, barring the daft run outs. It was also nice to see us playing the conditions rather than being totally gung ho.
Still scored at 4 runs + an over which is still a lot quicker than most other teams would score. Just goes to show the expectation this team have now set when we consider that scoring rate slow or measured

England all out 275 leaving Pakistan to get 355.
Currently 74-2 with Babar back in the Pavillion. Only session 2 of Day 3 so we will get a result.

Brilliant from Jack Leach to let the last ball of the previous over go for 4 so Wood could bowl at the tailender.

Closer than it should have been due to the collapse at the end of the second innings, but still a great series win.

Oh yeah. Will still be entertaining, just lacking jeopardy.

Stokes seems to be able to make others perform like he does. It's a great trait of leadership and he doesn't waver from his overall plan and plant doubt in the minds of his team.
