Yep and catching is poor. They need to look at their coaching.

Another fifer for Jimmy at Lord's and another spot on the honours' board, just the 18 years after his first

 Um…..well…… that didn’t go to plan Haseeb  :(

Kind of need to be hitting a ball heading for middle stump

Not great. Sibley must majorly be on borrowed time. Shame for Hameed, but it happens.

All on Root again.

Yeah he was late on it. When he scores a century second innings he can look back and laugh at that!

Clearly nerves got to Hameed, which is probably understandable. At least he’s experienced the worst that can happen there, so it’s all positive from now!

What a boring atmosphere at Lords. Place is like a Library.

We need Root to buck his weird trend of getting hardly any runs the following day when he’s not out overnight.

Brilliant morning.

It’s perfect conditions for the batsmen, we need them both to continue well into the afternoon session and beyond.
