Only problem was that every ball was missing the stumps.... bowling too short.

Decisions.
Bowl fuller.
Nothing to lose.
England's body language is ****ing awful.
We look a beaten side.
Ball is doing nothing, we look such a friendly medium paced bowling attack. Even miss another run out chance.
Utterly pathetic on a docile wicket and with them without their 2 best bowlers. I really think the entire management and backroom room staff should be replaced as should Root as captain. The decision making has been beyond clueless. Silverwood obviously isn't up to the job, not savvy enough or ruthless enough to be in charge. Lewis as bowling coach is inept, our lengths have been all wrong and selection has been poor. Thorpe was a great player but obviously his coaching leaves alot to be desired, there's no improvement in any of these players. It's the same **** over and over again. Root should keep his place as a batsman but isn't a leader in the field or the dressing room, it needs to be someone with a touch of nastiness about them. Don't think I can be arsed to watch anymore of this series it's just too depressing !
Root has suffered an abdomen injury during the warm up and us being assessed ! Can't we just come home now or say there's a covid outbreak in the camp and hide away for 2 years !
Neser almost run out off 1st ball of the day, brilliant throw from Hameed. Just our luck, he's just home and it ricochets off the stumps for 2 overthrows ! I give up lol
Blimey Harris gone now ! Fabulous 1 handed catch by Buttler off Broad. 48-3. Only need to bowl them out for 80 to have a sneak 
Can you believe it, Buttler drops Smith 1st ball ! Ffs I feel like kicking the TV in. Difficult chance but talk about momentum enders ffs. That could've created some doubt in tge Aussies dressing room and given us a massive boost. Bollox
What is going on ? Huge lbw shout from Broad on Smiths 2nd ball. Not out says corrupt umpire, let's go upstairs says Stokes ! Think it was just outside off stump. Smith trying to muscle his way into the Lucky Bastards club early on here !
Ffs just umpires call, smashing into off stump half way up. ****ing convict umpire. Right 100% ton for the sandpaper manufacturer coming up now ! Horse manure
Crazy ! Smith caught brilliantly 1 handed down the leg side by Buttler off Robinson for 6. 55-4. What a sick test Buttler is having behind the stumps, he only catches the nigh on impossible ones lol
Woakes really needs to produce something with the ball here, he's looked impotent in 3 innings now and will probably be replaced in the next test
