    80-4 is not good, and a long tail too. Still, let's see what India do when they bat before passing judgement:)

    Once we went 1-0 up in the series we should have selected 9 batsmen a test match.

    Still doesn't help if you don't bat properly. Plus you can't bowl the opposition side out :)

    Not sure that would have helped, we don't seem to be able to cope with these pitches.

    One bowler Broad or Anderson and one spinner Bess or Leach. Root and Stokes to take up more of the attack?

    I like you're thinking "outside the box" mate, but still doesn't work if you don't bat properly (which we didn't) :)

    We need Stokes and Pope to just go out and play their shots rather than die wondering. Put some pressure back on the bowlers and see if a partnership can develop.

    The Umpires Call rule is redundant when the umpires are just firing off batsmen whenever they fancy it.

    As soon as the finger goes up, even if there's a pube in it - then the batter is toast.

    It would be nice for them to try saying 'not out' every now and again

    I think you're being unfair there. Crawley this morning was given not out and it was umpires call.

    The Archers might be on earlier than planned.
