They talk about Bethell unable to get into his batting rhythm. He's played 1 Championship match all season!!

Not for the first time this series leaves me a little bit speechless. If it was still a thing I would buy the DVD.

Test cricket is dead, I reckon; zero excitement.

Oops!!

They were coasting the game, 6 down now with 35 runs needed and an injured Woakes so basically they are 7 down, squeaky bum time first hour in morning.

Where's your Quid going?

25p E/W on both teams.

Chris Woakes. One arm. Four needed. Nine down. Overton at the other end. One swing wins it. It is written.

This no longer sounds like an outlandish prospect.

Pressures off Engo now. I’d expect them to do it, if maybe with a little self inflicted drama. Had that continued tonight I really think they might have blown it, looking at that Smith bod’s eyes.

If they do blow it, they should be force fed to pigs.
