3rd Test (Lord’s) - 10 July to 14 July

Jaiswal really is a terrible fielder

It's endearing. The wonderkid batter who made it out of poverty by sheer talent and will power had to also overcome the fact that he's a liability in the field.

Wonder if his coaches used to make him run fine leg to fine leg.

Great job from Root and Pope to see off that spell from Bumrah and Siraj (assuming that's the end of Siraj too)

 

[cnerd123]

This is the challenge for NKR. He's bowled one excellent spell. Can he back it up with another one?

 

[Calm_profit]

Again Jaiswal drops

 

[Burgey]

What were the Australian attack doing last ashes then?

Retaining them

Must be close to Paddy's worst ever figures. Bazballed.

 

[SkyBlue]

Akash's lengths haven't been great today. Maybe he was put off earlier on with guys like Crawley coming down the track

 

[Red_Ink_Squid]

India missing Prasidh here.

112-2 @SillyCowCorner1

 

[Arachnödouche2.0]

Might have to budget for 400 on this wicket. Bowling's been tight but not sure if it's all that easy to score freely on this either.

 

[Chin Music]

There was a time when we would have thought just short of 3 an over was a ok!

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Fracture?

Probably. Out of series if so.

 

[RightArmMystery]

Root wants that #1 spot back

 

[kevinw]

Batting not easy today, so Root will obviously score a hundred.

 

[Chin Music]

I have always been a little frustrated with England, that in the current era, a good score might be got within 80 overs but leaves the bowling lineup with not very much time to recover if they've laboured in the first inning with the ball. Hopefully they can get a good score over say 120 overs this innings.

 

[The Brian Hardie Stance]

So many interruptions today

 

[silentstriker]

lol Siraj batting with Root’s bat. Doesn’t look like he was impressed. Ok bro.
