No that was a proper shooter

Here comes to wobble - Brook gone for a duck.

And Root gone.

And Stokes gone.

Carnage at Lords

He just missed a straight ball there.

From 126-2 to 127-6.

This is very like Perth. England can still very much win, but this is a proper collapse.

[taylorsworkrate]

In fairness I disagree. Perth was a collapse of horrific shots. This has been very good bowling on a tricky pitch with the clouds rolling in and floodlights on.

Hoping to set 200. Might take some getting.

The pitch has fallen to pieces, just not good enough for test cricket.

There should be some honest questions about the viability of Lords as a test ground if this isn't improved because no day 2 pitch should be playing like that did in the 2nd half of the session.

[cdbearsfan]

Not for me. Much better than watching teams pile on 500 under no threat. This has been a fun test match.

[PaulWinch again]

Pitch is not good, more enjoyable than playing on a road though.

I have revised this opinion
