Do I bother staying up for this tonight? Weather forecast looks shoddy.....I can be asleep by half 10 no danger, be annoyed if I stay up later and then its rained off!

Watched the 'highlights' and that's as not good. Lots of playing away from the body, decent bowling but not 147 all done good.

Called it a night at 1....wish i'd called it at half ten.....watching the highlights now, there were some good balls in there but there were also some average shots.....but this is us in a nutshell, we've got 4 or 5 players capable of making a nice 30-40 runs but only one player who is capable of going big regularly when they get there. Pope and Buttler made it look pretty easy whilst they were batting together but there's just no backbone

Listening to the TMS Pod and they're pretty much just moaning about not selecting Broad.
Lads, we've been bowled out for 147. We could select the ghosts of Willis, Larwood and Malcolm Marshall and we're still in a shit position.

Chris Woakes was one of the few who got a couple of runs as well.
