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

Pitch looks good for bowling. There is carry now as well.

I fear England have enough and we might get skittled out for below 200

Something very Scottie Scheffler about Bumrah. You watch just their actions without any context and there's no way you'd expect them to be generational talents in their respective sport, yet they're both incredible. Love to see these unconventional sports people at the top of the game.

England should have attacked the older ball a lot more yesterday. You can’t be letting Sundar bowl 10 overs for 21 runs when you play a team with Bumrah on a seamers wicket.

Bumrah was a bit disappointing yesterday but he has turned up to make amends today to remind everyone he is still one of the ATG fast bowlers.

Bowling both Stokes and Root who were looking quite comfortable in the last session yesterday, you would have expected them to kick on today.

Bumrah had other ideas.

Not just that but looks like some keeping a bit low too. Definitely quite a bit in it for the bowlers now.
I feel that was happening a bit yesterday but the slowness of the pitch meant the batsmen was never too troubled if they just pressed forward

Didn't really see any of yesterday's action so couldn't compare. But the Stokes wicket didn't appear to get up as much as he thought it would (not to mention the lateral movement too). Anything over 300 looks competitive.
