No the modern batsman rarely has the technique to deal with a moving ball

Well, that promising Cook/Bairstow partnership feels a long way away now. 184 all out. Broad and Anderson need to take a few wickets before close to spare young Joe's blushes today, I think.

The inability to bowl 90 overs in 6 and a half hours is shameful

It was shocking. Its probably getting to a stage where some big and key decisions have to be made. Now do the powers that be have the balls to do so?

It'll take a minor miracle to avoid an innings defeat here. Six down and still trail by 68.

Credit where it's due to the two southwestern boys Bess and Buttler for hauling England out of arrears and giving a sliver of hope that we might set a half-decent target for Pakistan tomorrow.

Decades of Test match experience between the top 6, and it takes a debutant and a white-ball specialist to play a proper innings Rolleyes
