Woakes and Pope out with Curran and Ali coming in, and Bairstow relinquishing the gloves.  Harsh on Pope and I didn't even realise Woakes was injured.

I think it's because Stokes isn't expected to bowl, he was a specialist batsman for Durham in the t20 as well, I guess he's carrying an injury.

Not surprised Moen is back in, he's been in great form lately.

Root won the toss and we are batting. Over to you then, English batsmen.

Batting on whats looks a good pitch and under blue skys.

Potential for England to get 250 here if they bat their socks off.

Jennings gone for nothing, pretty much an unplayable delivery though to be fair.

Jennings is an international class opener. Discuss.

It was but he is short of technique at this level.

It’s definitely unplayable if you have your bat hanging in the air

Was a great ball. It did look pretty comical on Jennings part though. You'd expect Broad to be out in such a fashion.

Amazing how Bumrah generates so much pace from such a short run up, which I could get half that pace off 14 paces.

How you can overstep after such a short run is pretty poor really.

Just seen the clip and it looks like Jennings didn't see it.  He seemed genuinely shocked when it hit his pad.
