Amazing day and a strange way for Parkinson to make his debut.

I really hope Potts isn’t seriously injured.

Apparently he is the third player to make his debut in this way

I’m only following by text, and have done with cricket for years abroad, but it feels like Test cricket is just very poor now. I could probably count on one hand the number of times I remember seeing 14+ wickets fall in a day in the 90s, even when England were truly abysmal, but (perhaps I’m just being grumpy) the notion of sticking around and just not getting out doesn’t seem in any mentality any more. Is it something else ?

Got tickets for day 4. That seems highly unlikely.

It’s like a runaway train - no one ever has the sense to just dig him. Brendon if you didn’t know before you got a job on.

I don’t know if he’s able anymore, but this is a really good opportunity for Broad to show he can have value with the bat. Could be important if he wants to extend his career.

Just think the scheduling means that teams don't have time to prepare any more and come into series (particularly away from home) very cold.
