    Was listening to it in the car earlier on 5 live sports extra. Michael Vaughan is a ****ing pleb! Someone called for him to be shovelled from their line up and I agree. He’s horrendous. This is how to get people interested in test match cricket. Not blacking out 100 deliveries

    Michael Vaughan the media personality is a moron - manufactured "controversial" opinions that are essentially him telling everyone he'd do the opposite to whatever the current on field captain is doing,

    Mick Vaughan the cricketer is a legend and rightly so.

    Absolutely agree. He’s just another Boycott but without the personality he had. Yo Otto was like listening to a funny old uncle who you could laugh at. Vaughan is just awful!

    well, switched off and did a bit in the garden, obviously had to stop when the T&L began then the rain, put the cricket back on in time to see bairstow get his hundred, what a difference a couple of batsmen can make eh?

    brilliant knock from them both and fingers crossed overton gets his maiden test hundred the morn.

    Which would bring a difficult selectorial decision for the India Test next week. Overton's bowling was "OK" but if Jimmy is fit can you really drop a bloke who made a ton on debut?

    Not to mention when Robinson, Woakes, Archer, Wood and Stone are fit.

    Shame we have no batsmen

    Incredible fightback. To be within striking distance of NZ by the end of the day was remarkable.

    At 55/6 I guess none of us were!! Would love to see Overton get his ton. Hope he doesn’t suffer the “sleep on it” curse!!
