    I don’t think Flintoff captained us again after that catastrophic tour.
    He had stepped in for Vaughan but he quickly stepped out

    131 for 1 off 22 overs. I like this version of test cricket!

    PS I’m watching on record so a bit behind the score

    The intention will be to reach 600 by stumps tomorrow, leaving 2 days to force a win.

    Bazball is funking brilliant.

    Bazball is the absolute opposite of that. 5 times we’ve conceded 400+ in the first innings, we’ve won 4 of them! This will hopefully be 5 out of 6.

    I think Stokes will declare at 300 and try and bowl India out for 200 to leave a fantastic run chase :D. Glad to kept being proved wrong :). (I won't eat humble pie until we avoid the follow on though.)

    Well done Duckett. A century each from Root and Bairstow would be OK jow.

    Ashwin out of the rest of the match due to family matter. Sub fielder only allowed.

    I know it benefits us but it’s a rule that needs reviewing.
    Currently a replacement is only allowed for concussion or co-vid so surely a “ family medical emergency “ should qualify ?
    Anyway, they’re now left with 4 world class bowlers instead of 5 .. and a good batter down so c’mon England

    There was once an opening batter named Duckett. He went to India smashing the ball about saying " FC UK it".

    3rd fastest century ever against India in India. Just behind Adam Gilchrist and Clive Lloyd. Brilliant knock.

    Tend to agree, but it would be open to abuse. Australia would probably misuse it if it suited them....

    They could be exempt from a rule change on the grounds that they are .. mmm .. Australian !

    I love Joe Root. I love Bazball. But that was the wrong shot for the occasion. He opened the door and they battered it down.
    Shocker of a day from England. Even the Bazballers must be rocked by that.

    8 wickets for 120 odd is pretty pathetic to be honest. Such a good start just thrown away. Bazball is playing without fear, it’s not playing without a brain. Needed to be level or have a lead to stand any chance of winning this test match.

    Fornicating useless. Knew I'd be proved right. This team can't regroup and go again. No consistency from day to day. Had yesterday been 15 overs longer England would have been closer.

    You change stance from minute to minute, you're bound to be "proved right" eventually....
