Even Jarrod calls him "Mooen".

In 5 tests in England Compton averages 11.25 with a best of 22*. I don't see that record improving...

Oh, Vince. You'll have to improve a lot against Pakistan if you want to sway to doubters.
Thank God Cook's injury isn't too serious.

"Brilliant" innings. Root's actually had almost as bad a series as anyone... bar Compton and Vince.

I've never really gotten it on with Bairstow. This purple patch of his has always reminded me a bit of a teenager....ie "don't worry, he's just going through a phase".
To be honest Balladeer, I fear England are beginning to look a bit Worcs-ish. Nobody bar Cook, Root, Anderson & Broad have proved themselves long term, yet somehow one player always seems to manage to pull it out for them. With Root and Cook not at their best and Jimmy aging I fear for their future, TBH.

Just made the decision not to bother travelling to Lord's today. Two and a half hour train thanks to engineering works and another £50, for what looks like very limited prospects of play.
So it'll probably be glorious all day now and we'll see something ludicrous like a Steven Finn ton

Fair play to Hales, thought he wouldn't do much in this series. Put together some good scores though, even if he hasn't converted them into really big ones yet.

Hales out off a nobby! It's happened so many times to Finn that I don't feel too sorry for him.
...wait, it isn't a nobby! Now I do feel sorry for him.

Shame for Hales to miss the ton, but really he's got 40 odd more than he should there. And yes, yes I am annoyed that they've got a reasonable amount of play in.

A six from Cook! It's a beautiful sight.
