Vesty is pure class and I won't hear a word against him

Arse biscuits

If he can't do 90 I'd rather he came on rather than be taken off. If he doesn't get at least 30 mins I re evaluate.

Getting a grip on it now

Fatty gonna score soon.

Good save

Livened up a bit now.

We've got the ball.

Here we go again. Have a great season everyone.

I'm currently in a big (very good natured) argument with a friend about Brook. I just think it's the way he plays - he can't really switch that on or off (he might learn to). Root was set, and the anchor. He really should have seen us through. But watching Bethell lose his mind at the other end might have got to him - but I expect a lot more from someone as experienced as Root.

Harry Brook out on 111 I see. David Shepherd's corpse would have been jiggling around like Michael Flatly on amphetamines.

Yes. It was just a fantastic game of cricket. I'm not happy about anyone criticising any player involved with that. Although Bethell is a twat and shouldn't play for England again

Yeah - but we had to get it over and done before the cricket candyfloss extravaganza that is the hundred (I'll not watch one second of that shite)

I know what you mean, but it's not as easy or obvious as it looks.

We're chasing 373 ffs. I know it looked like we bottled it - but the pressure. The ****ing pressure. It was outstanding cricket to even get close.

Well done India - took full advantage of all our injuries. Not a great win for them under the circumstance. But a great effort from England.

The dropped catches yes. I'm not having it that we capitulated the chase.

Siraj deserved that. What a series. What a game. I love you all.

It's fantastic. I bloody adore test cricket. Nothing like it.

If India Mankad him - it will sum them up.

I'm just laughing. And crying. It's incredible.

Colossal stuff from Woakes.

Have you ever played or even watched cricket? Do you have the slightest idea what scoreboard pressure does? Do you you understand why totals like this are virtually NEVER chased down?

Tie anyone?

I don't think you can say England have bottled it when they have got to within 12 of a 373 chase. It's incredible.
