V brave dec when you're a bowler down, not sure a bowling attack made up of medium pacers and part time spinners has got 10 wickets in them on this pitch!

Disappointing that they don't seem to be giving this much of a go (though plenty of time of course)
Also, that was Root's 7th Test hundred since any of the fab four scored one!

Why is Ben Stokes bowling?

Well that was shit. Test cricket is enough strife without turds like this and Rawalpindi stinking the place up

Glad to see Saqib get a debut, although I'm a bit concerned at the buildup he's getting being unfair. He's a young guy with a lot of talent, but being out of the team at the moment improves a player like nothing else. He's absolutely not Wood/Archer pace. More like Stokes, and probably quite a similar bowler with the reverse swing ability.

Fisher too with Coverton unwell overnight.
Christ alive, imagine saying at the start of the Ashes our attack would soon be Woakes, Fisher and Mahmood.
Somewhere, Stuart Broad has one hell of a collection of voodoo dolls.

Fisher....I mean, I really hope he does well, but the guy prob isn't one of Yorks' best 2 quicks, it's really quite strange seeing him get a cap for England so early in his career

Ben Stokes. What a guy.
Compensates for the rumours that Ed Smith is the favourite for the Director of England Cricket job. There is a certain class of man who can only fail upwards, isn't there?
