Whatever happens we need to look at our bowling at the last wicket, we've conceded over 200 runs across the two innings.

And England's 10th wicket has yielded 2 runs in 2 innings...

Finn needs to sort himself out, he has looked horrible.

Has Victor been on TMS at any point in this test ?

Drop him and put Onions in. Finn has been awful apart from two balls all match. You need control in tests and with Finn and Broad we don't have that. We should only play one of them next up.

Bit harsh on Broad, he's been pretty controlled.

I'd rather Finn occasionally hit the stumps with his knee and went back to his old bowling.

This is torture. I'd still rather be in our position. Just.

I think Finn needs to work on his run up. He has made a big difference in this test match for wrong reasons.

To be honest, Anderson aside we've bowled really poorly this session. Finn's two overs were a disgrace, and his fielding's been woeful.

I believe if you concede well over 200 runs to the last wicket in a test match, you can't deserve to win it.

It's ever since he started changing it that he's gone backwards.

I really can't see how we are going to take a wicket, unless they get nervous.
