Ollie Robinson. Utterly phenomenal.

Those of us who have been following county cricket knew this already, of course. :msgreen:

More of the same in the next test please England.

Robinson's test bowling stats are absolutely filthy right now.

Predicting an XI of Burns, Hameed, Malan, Root, Pope, Bairstow, Moeen, Woakes, Overton, Robinson, Anderson.

Yeah, that's probably the team. Curran's not really been firing at all but I hope Woakes is fit enough. I was surprised to see Moeen getting the VC yesterday given he's been in and out of the side with such regularity. But I guess Burns and Andrerson are probably the only players who've been in long term now and I guess they're not vice captain material?

Is the ball black or just a really really dark red?

There's definitely a lot riding on this partnership. Pope is in dire need of a score after getting back in the side. I'd expect YJB to be a fixture for a while so he's under less pressure.

YJB should have introduced him to the end of his bat.

I certainly didn't see us getting a lead when we were 62-5. Some nice batting by the middle order for a change.
