I'd say Malan has got one more innings.

Burns in.

Meanwhile there’s a pigeon on the pitch. Very amusing.

Take that? I think I would have at the beginning of the match. England in a decent position - and, crucially, Root’s still there. Still might make up to 34 more runs too.

The run-out was Bairstow’s fault I think.

There was 400 there for the taking on that wicket and we've completely ballsed it up.

On the bright side, my choice of Sam Curran over Porter would already seem to have been vindicated...

...you're right, that's not very bright. :|

The mic drop from Kohli was brilliant, nice to get a bit of spice in the game. Don't know what the hell Stokes was thinking with his shot?

Of Trevor Bayliss telling him to be aggressive, no doubt.

Today’s dilemma: do I follow along, knowing it’ll muck up my blood pressure? Or do I tune in only intermittently, and experience that great sinking feeling every time I do?
