Wood looks more knackered as Bairstwo drop Labuschagne off his bowling. UNfuckingbelievable

[olaftab]

Labuschagne gone as brook holds a catch off Ali.

199 wickets for Mo now

[PaulWinch again]

Brook has rescued Bairstow there because the latter, sad to say, has been absolutely appalling. Putting him in as keeper has cost us in the field and with the bat.

Come on some luck - get Smith quick please.

[olaftab]

200 and it's Smith for Ali.

[PaulWinch again]

Yep massive impact from Mo. Could really do with another couple quick.

[Flamingo Lane]

Given his ongoing ineptitude with bat and gloves, it's a bit rich Bairstow giving stick to Smith on his dismissal, he may be better to focus on his own game.

[Flamingo Lane]

Like I said...

[PaulWinch again]

Massive wicket Woakes. Good take Bairstow.

Get Marsh out fast.

[Steve67]

Moeen bowling well.

Was just about to post the same.
When he actually held a catch to get Kawaja out he was giving it large.

The way he’s playing I’d rather recall Alan Knott

[PaulWinch again]

To be honest at a couple of points today we looked gone, but we’re still in it. Need a big morning session to try and knock them over for 220 (lead) or less.

I get that but I also want us to keep getting under their skin. If one of the best batsmen in the world can react to a gentle bit of chat then we have them under pressure. We need to capitalise though!

[PaulWinch again]

Yeah and that’s it we have to capitalise. We haven’t been doing that.

[TonyD]

We need to get them out by lunch tomorrow. 
Be tempted to put Stokes in at number 3 or 4. 
And let him rip.
