Repeating myself, I know, I don't find our openers convincing

as i said afore, i expect the openers to just plod on and aim for a ton (not that they will get there every time of course) and just be there frustrating/tiring the bowlers and giving the ball some hammer...nowt worse than knowing you are going to bowl at a couple of stubborn buggers that do not throw wickets away easy.

'slash and bash' players can do thier work middle order.
 
root never looked at ease there mind, mind, some real stupid swipes at the ball from them all..ffs they have a good half a day to get 114, take your time lads.

First few overs after lunch crucial now, get backing settled and keep the scoreboard ticking
 
We’ll still do it. Keep the faith.
 
If we don't chase down a mere 250 then that will massively affect the dynamics of Bazball.
I reckon heroes of the day will be either Woakes or Wood.
Bairstow is due a big score and sort of owes the team. Got no real faith in Brook this series

Australia have probably scored at a higher run rate than us in this match. How can you put that down to Bazball?
