England are fucking atrocious at tests.Only come alive against the colony.

Been a good test this one - hopefully it’ll be some finale.

The momentum has shifted irresistibly in our direction

It was a ludicrous decision to “rest” Broad in the first test of a best of three. Comfortably our best bowler

bess won’t bowl this lot out. 2 more wickets and we are through ! Stokes will do it.

ball has gone soft and is not reverse swinging …….

22 overs left to get two wickets. Should be ours now

Windies on the ropes now. This is vintage Anderson. They’ve got no answer

I will never tire of watching the great man bowl. Genius

    alistair I was at Lords for his debut in 2003, and he’s unrecognisable as the same bowler now. The amount of skill and technique he has is mind-blowing. Best England bowler of all time IMO.

        vinnyt77 for sure. His action is so elegant and economical. Federer like. The degree of swing orthodox and reverse he gets off that “good” off stump line is pretty amazing

          Bollocks! I’ve been racing today and so haven’t been paying attention. I put £100 on the draw last night due to the weather situation.

          Fucking hell. 😅
          Rahkeem Cornwall is a fat athlete. Not seen anything like it outside the arrows.

          Another great test in the making here, potentially. A little Calypso Collapso action required from Pakistan

          Charlie Shaheen is a wonderful bowler.

          Reminds me of me.

          love a good Pakistani touring team. Loads of flair. Never dull.
          We had a pro over who was on the fringes of the test team once. Fast bowler. Like some mad Jihidi with a ball in his hand, so kind and gentle off the pitch.
          Bailed him out of loads of on pitch rucks.
          Fun days.
          Which was nice!

          10 runs from the first three deliveries today. Jesus fucking Christ.
