That delivery to get Marsh is a beauty.  Not brilliant batting but he set him up for it and then timed it perfectly to angle one back in.

If Finn keeps this up then there will be, the over right now to Nevill is unplayable.

I can see a mass migration from Birmingham to Nottingham that Calais would be proud of

A great day, though it's gone a bit flat with Jimmy going off. Hope that isn't the last f him this series.

Two remarkable days test cricket. The stand between Moeen and Broad was vital and Finn's bowling was sublime. I genuinely hope he takes the final three wickets because he deserves a 10-fer.

So does Jimmy though, his bowling in the first innings was unplayable and set this all up.

Absolutely. The right conditions and pitch and he is unplayable.

But similar to Lyth and Ballance I'm afraid he's not good enough. If they are all legitimately the best players England have to open and bat in the middle order then things are in a bad way batting talent wise.

I didn't see the delivery but evidently it was a bit of a snorter, enough to demand he is dropped already?

Not saying Bairstow should be dropped.  Just saying if he's the best we've got to bat at 5 then we're in a heap of trouble because he just isn't good enough.

Brilliant to see Finn back, hopefully we'll wrap it up now. Moeen and Broad's partnership was critical.
