I know you don’t like it DW but Bairstow’s an absolute liability

He is generally a better keeper than this, no arguing that he's been rubbish all series

 

[Mel Evo]

That was an awful drop.

 

[Wolftone]

Even I could have caught that one

 

[Jabbawolf]

How does Smith not know he’s nicked that??

 

[sycophantia]

Hate to kick a guy when he's down, but England can't afford to be soft in big games..
Ooh Smiths gone.

 

[Carrotdude]

Not surprising he’s worse after the injury as well

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Good old instareview Smith. Never ever thinks he's out.

 

[WsWolf]

Atmosphere ticked up a notch now Smith's gone. Hopefully we smell blood

 

[Carrotdude]

Good old instareview Smith. Never ever thinks he's out.

Weird one, he surely just didn’t think he’d hit it or is he just too confident in his belief?

Think Sniffer put up one of his lbws for Sussex a few weeks back, stone dead and he walks off like he's got a 90s style stinker of a decision. Just a twat.

Neither, he's just a cheating twat

Broad has the most wickets but Wood has been excellent. Bloody Bairstow.

I have a slight concern that their bowlers will rip through us, but let’s worry about that later. Great morning session for us.

 

[WsWolf]

Every ball from wood looks threatening. First time I've seen 95mph+ bowling live and it's electric.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

It's been superb viewing and even better, they seem to have left Pietersen back in London. Much better to have an actual broadcaster in Mark Butcher there.

 

[Sniffer]

Scotland in with a good chance to qualify for the World Cup against the Dutch. The Netherlands need 195 more off 33 overs to win but need it off of 28(ish) overs to stop Scotland from qualifying. 83 for 2 off 17 chasing 278.

He is back at his house in South Africa I think.

Yes. Does my head in with his faux technical insight. Basically makes a point up for the sake of saying something then doubles down on it to try and legitimise it.

 

[Tredman]

Making Marsh look good again.

 

[Wolftone]

Sake. Root drops a dolly

 

[WsWolf]

Our fielding is shocking. Constantly giving reprieves, that will be the difference come the end.
