It does look an absolute belter of a pitch to bat on though. Coming on very nicely

Yeah, I think 200 is doable, but already looking like could have to chase 250+, which would surely be too many. Completely different game if Brook holds that catch.

That dropped catch is proving costly.

I'd say about 220 is a par score on this pitch

They’ll have that after 17 overs.

Indeed they’re getting 260 here, short of a collapse.
