Bumrah decided that he didn't like his transformation into Rahul David and asked to be returned to a tailender

Just had to find out how many overs England had bowled.

And annoying not knowing how many balls are left in the over sometimes.

I do think serious questions need to be asked of Dukes after this series.

 

The ball just does absolutely nothing during the middle overs.

Exactly....was watching an intverview with Stuart Broad and they gave him a Ball that had been changed......He could basically push it into any shape it was that soft.

[Wolfox]

Go get Suraj now…. Embarrass him please !!!

The Kookaburra being trialled in the county game has been an absolute disaster.

Annoying aspect of Sky's coverage is when a result is close they stop showing half the score board.

Annoys me way more than it should but just feels brain dead to me

Hopefully Bashir is injured for the next test. Shame Rehan hasn't been bowling as would have been interesting to see if they chucked him in, especially if Woakes/Carse come out and you need the extra batting.

yes,i've been looking for that......you'd think they could take the bowling figures on the right of the screen off.

[Aleksz]

Stokes looks ruined, led by example today.

But that shows you how many balls are left . Assuming most people are able to subtract from 6

Absolute trooper isn't he. He'll be grateful for the 8 days rest! 

[StanSP]

How long do they play on until tea? 

[Tommy Fresh]

Fair play to Jadeja

an extra 20 minutes i think.

[CL Fox]

Surely Jadeja thinks he's got to do something differently now, or does he think Siraj can defend 40 odd balls?

Just gotta take it ball by ball I think. 

 

Try and hit the bad balls and run the singles each over if possible. 

[StanSP]

Fair play to Pope. Extremely brave to field there, ridiculously close!

This is as pulsating as the last 2 days for entirely different reasons! 

 

This test match alone has had everything. 

[CL Fox]

Stokes has done too many overs, should have brough Archer on. What a knock by Jadeja.

[CosbehFox]

Jadeji rolling back in cricket style here - deserves some praise for this. Pure grit 

[Super_horns]

Ball is soft but hopefully get that last wicket!

 

 

[trabuch]

That's a great 50 tbf

[StanSP]

Is Stokes bowling this much because he wants to be the hero? 

 

Surprised Woakes and Archer haven't bowled more in this session. 

[AKCJ]

Going for a piss 9 minutes before the tea break?
