Good start but Aus are getting away. If they get 150 we’ll be in trouble!

So annoying. Every time we get the Aussies by the throat we let them off the hook.

Woakes and Wood are too loose here.

I reckon the Aussies will get over 300 the way it's going, and that's probably 50+ more than a good score on this pitch and about 80+ more than what England would want, having put them in

Oh dear. No Robinson and Stokes able to bowl. Root on in the 33rd over

Clearly the batting is our fundamental problem, but the bowling has also repeatedly let them off the hook.

This is utter pish. Even Green is getting runs. Green! England are ragged.

Really poor and gone very defensive which means it’s easy to milk runs.

I’d also add it’s fucking mental playing Stokes when he’s clearly injured.

Or Robinson, his shoulder has gone again after 1 session. How did he pass the fitness test?

Well played Head, it’s a great innings even if it’s been assisted by some dreadful bowling.

Wood's gone for nearly 8 an over.
