    Bairstow just isn't a test player. He's a limited overs player. I really don't understand why he's been brought back in for this test.

    That gap between JB's bat and pad was wider than Wellington Street!

    I was being a tad optimistic. There is a real fear we could lose this in 2 days.

    By an innings

    We currently have more runs than wickets lost, though it's close. Need to watch some football highlights to cheer myself up. Any suggestions ;)

    remember that time you said Stokes was a test player ?? ;)

    JB is unlucky, in decent form, sent home to sit for 3 weeks then flown to India and asked to bat at 3 straight off the plane.. His stats over the past 3 years stand up to anyone else in the top 6 bar Root.

    It really could be over in 2 days, and if it is the ICC need to take action against the Indian's for the quality of the pitch. I get that they are at home, so conditions should favour them (I critisice the ECB for how neutral or even favourable to the visitors ours are), but it's not a test match if a team can take 20 wickets in the first 2 days...

    I was looking at the batting averages the other day. When was the last time England only had one of their top 6 averaging over 40?
