    Back to red ball and 4.00 am start.
    Bess will play but if wicket is similar to last time, it’s more relevant as to whether we can get more than 160.

    I think we need a long innings from one of our openers and discipline from Bairstow and Pope.
    Anyway, game on in 12 hours !

    Think it was Sunday when I was looking up when the next test was starting, before realising they should still be playing the third test!

    Its difficult if the pitch is turning like the last one which I can't see but you never know.

    Do you go out and block and become a sitting duck or attack and try build a score quickly?

    Get to the pitch and put bat on it. Either launch it into the stand or it hits you. Make sure you get outside the line though if you're defending.
