We have to challenge the stumps more. Labuschange and Smith have been able to leave too much and we have less than zero margin given the batting “effort”.

They’re going to be stuck like limpets there hitting 1’s and 2’s for the next 20 overs.

I’m good at this

We need to keep taking wickets, because these two are still big dangers.

Atkinson needs a bit of luck here, he's bowled well but got nothing to show for it yet.

I'd like to see Stokes give himself a couple soon.

England have bowled great, but need to break this small partnership.

Green is very lucky there, completely misjudged the delivery, did well not to fall into his stumps though.

Massive wicket, that's why he needed to bring himself on, he's the best partnership breaker we have.

Just an uncanny ability to induce mistakes in set batters.
