Yes, I slagged off players for some woeful shots but Root, Crawley and Archer have given us a competitive score.
i have to admit throwing a few ****s at some of the shots but was pleasantly surprised to come back to the house see Root and Archer had put on the late runs.May well set my alarm for tomorrow.
 
I don't see any reason to be critical of that mini cluster of wickets before Jofra came out. Seems pretty clear that we were happy to bowl in those conditions (with the pink ball), but didn't want to just declare in order to do so. So instead: have a whack, and either the runs flow or we get on with bowling. Stokes would have seen that as a win-win.
 
All he does is bang it in and hope for the best. He's absolute crap.
Oh really? You've Tommed Green.
"Decent setup from Brydon Carse who outfoxed Cameron Green with a two-card trick.
Carse followed Green backing away to leg with a bouncer the previous ball - deemed a wide - and then fires in the yorker which clatters into his stumps."
And another! Away he goes bye bye Smiffy.
