    Looks like Bess isn’t considered anymore and he had a reasonable season at Yorks I thought

    Shame really as Bess hasn't done too bad at all for Yorkshire but England just seem to have discarded him.

    It's a shame we spunked our innings away. Pakistan look like inflicting some pain.

    Strange that they have discarded Bess, and also discarded Parkinson off the back of 14 overs on a pitch that offered nothing to the spinners. Could also have given Callum Parkinson a chance.

    You’ve got to sip it constantly with the tea bag tag hanging out.

    I see Leach got 3 more … did he bowl well ?

    From what I saw yes. Bowled consistently and waited for the batter mistake in the main, the ball to Rizwan was a good nut.

    I'm not sure this "Baz Ball" is sustainable.

    Sure when it comes off, then it's spectacular - last week was amazing. But that was poor from Jacks - albeit he'll be under instructions.

    It's like picking 9 attackers and trying to win every game 8-3. It'll come off once in a while, but you need the basics down too.

    I’m not convinced either but, hey, it’s working so far and quite entertaining

    Don't get me wrong, I'd rather this than the turgid stuff that we endured under the back end of the Silverwood/Root regime.

    But there's surely a balance to be had.

    Our total didn't look that good. But now both teams have batted it does look good.

    Abrar Amed has bowled amazingly. A shameful him that the middle order batsmen were so poor.

    Really excited by Brook. Top player. Never seen anyone like him. Plays proper cricket shots.

    He’s also got a superb temperament and confidence.
    Next England captain potential

    Did you miss Kevin Pietersen?

    I don't think he will. It's unfortunate but it's very much like the Thorpe/ Petersen situation in 2005. You go with the up and coming player. I don't think it's the end for Bairstow but he's probably waiting for someone else to fail.

    No Pietersen at his best was great. At his worst he was awful. Brook plays cricketing shots first and foremost. He's the best I've seen.
