Pretty stupid to bring Tahir in with the new ball swinging. Will Tahir play another game?

So Johnson averages 50.50 with the bat this series; our highest. Surely can't be dropped.

Cummins needs about 11 OBEs for his contribution to the Brittish Empire through this test match.

He really should do, still easily offers more than Harris.

Not a decision I would have taken but he was inches away from getting Cummins out then.

Any idea of conditions-based planning was gone by that point, it was simply a ploy to mess with them. Good idea in theory, unfortunately he bowled a long hop.

What a game. Made covering English bearable.

Two Test series are the worst idea ever.
