Ah! Seriously could have got a wicket or two, other way to look at it, may be come afresh tomorrow and have a real crack at them.. Anyhow the momentum atm was with them.

I am still backing our bowlers to do some damage

So what is our format, too slow in T20 too hasty in Test. Based on this, we should be great at ODIs then.

What a missed opportunity today. Not easy conditions at all but some poor shots.

Stings a bit that Raza is playing in Manchester tonight when he should have been in Ireland.

Could this be the match we finally see some wickets from Chivanga. He got the fire in his belly that's for sure

He’d totally be a ho’s before bro’s kind of guy. Sitting pretty with his pocket full of pound sterling, king of Manchester for a month. Moody and atmospheric Instagram photos at salford quays.

Telling birds in the nightclubs how he would have opened in the India t20s but salamander vetoed it.

Test cricket is not rocket science, u bat long and take no risks and grind out the runs and leave the balls you're not comfortable with. It's not a hobby, it's their profession. We looked like weekend cricketers in our "best" format. Shit it makes me angry.
Even the tail enders having a Harry is bloody infuriating. Do that if you've got 400, not 200, at least try and eke out another 20 runs. A tail ender in this modern day cricket should at least have a defence of sorts.
From 100-0 to 200 all out? Adair bowled very well but the others were bog standard on a good pitch. The ball started moving more after lunch, a lot more? That was very weird all by itself.
Mawoyo saying Williams was playing too confidently after he went out to a good delivery? Maybe he wouldn't have nicked it if he had been less confident.
He doesn't stop blowing smoke up Myers' arse either, at every opportunity, jeez it's boring- plays every format well- when we've just watched him bog two innings at a run a ball. Just say he looks organised and has potential and leave it at that until after he sets it alight.

I didn't see how Ervine went out?

Little for Raza is a fair swap for me. Little would have caused us serious problems in the morning

Raza just chopped one on. Terrible looking shot. No good news there either.
