A shame, but that one appeared to stay low if we can get a decent score of the board then some variable bounce will be handy (there appears to be be nothing else)

Going large here, fantastic from Cook yesterday, Root still going on, 166 N.O currently, Woakes almost at 50.

Not happy with our middle order of Ballance and Vince, got to be looking to get Buttler in there when fit and tell him to play his natural game and take it to the bowlers.

Great knock by Woakes, amusing that he was only meant to be doing a night watchman job.

Got to be fill ya boots time now imo. Let's get the game moving on, post 500+ and declare.

Bloody hell, when did Woakes get really good all of a sudden? On this form I can't see him being dislodged from the team.

A great asset with bat and ball.
