With the new ball to come we've got to be favourites here.

Sounds a stupid thing to say after all he’s done but we need Jimmy to lift his level from earlier with the new ball

Surely, but these two are no mugs and on their day are well capable of even streaky 30s apiece.

Ha, got in their heads making them think they had a bonus over to score from and they went a bit too aggressive, fantastic captaincy.

2 wickets with 15 overs of a new ball. Your money has got to be on England.

Yep, the last root over was clever, this is a mistake and not really how I'd expect Stokes to go at it. Broad on now though.

Not taking the new ball for the last 3 overs has been a mistake.

Cummins looking like a number 4/5 all of a sudden

Not taking new hall 3 overs was a bad mistake

( in my professional cricketer opinion of course 😀)
