Possibly. But the angle of the ball from Boult puts a little doubt in a batsman’s mind.

Could have left in on length IMHO
But it's an easy game from the sofa.........

Root out there now. Pope could likely have left that one on length too. But it was excellent bowling

turned into a classic game this mind...different mindset from england?

normally lose those fairly quick wickets it becomes a 'slog it out for the draw' type game.

Seen the score just before tea and said we’d be lucky to get a draw with our nack to collapse. Brilliant from Bairstow, he’s some player when he gets going

if google is right...105 balls is fastest to 150 in tests, 18 runs from 15 balls needed, haway lad

damn...

First day in work for three weeks. Come home and missed the carnage FFS. That must have been some knock from Bairstow.

 

[flandersmackem]

sensational innings from Bairstow, joy to watch

 

[LD19SAFC]

Been some test match. Quality.

Been some test match. Quality.

Feel like going back and quoting those (including myself) who said “well that’s all over” or “draw is best we can do”!!!
Absolutely superb

 

[samwise_new]

boring?..who said that?

never seen a test turn on its head like that before, cant even say NZ bowled badly just bairstow went into full beserker mode...
