At what stsge do England shut up shop and grind out the draw? Still around 60 overs left....

Now!

Surprised Johnny Bairstow's average is only 33, thought it would be higher.

No sign Stokes is going to shut up shop.

Following with intermittent internet on the train from Cornwall to Reading.
England could be in trouble now.
Hopefully they can make sure they don't lose.

These 2 looking good. Keep going.

Set up for a mega final session , you feel these 2 have to take it deep and at least 1 of them be there at the death. Come on England !

Beautifully poised........

Brilliant test match whatever the result....

26 runs off the first 2 overs after tea........it's on!!!

Wow. Wish I was watching this instead of being stuck on this train.
England surely win if these two stick together.
