They are but with Crawley in particular, a wicket is only ever around the corner. He has this knack of looking well set and then suddenly losing his wicket out of nowhere.
What he has done so far today has been good.
That was Root in his whites there walking inside the window. Is he coming in at number 3?
Harder to bounce a short arse though
surprise to see @balbec @ChairmanDan & @balbec so invested in the mysogonistic & racist English cricket team

86/1. Crawley as we all called it gives it away getting stumped on 48.

I see Scott Boland, only the second ever man from the aboriginal community in nearly 150 years of test cricket to be capped for Australia was inexplicably the only player dropped from the winning first test team at Edgbaston.
not english cricket mate
England 145/1 at tea.
Nathan Lyon looks to have done his calf and Cummins has caught a ball to the eye.
Huge celebrations by the Aussies as Root gloves one behind…but it’s a reprieve, yet another no ball by Cameron Green.
Tuffers not impressed on the radio with Roots shot selection.
208/3
Duckett out on 98.
222/4.
Root out cheaply. More Bazball madness. Starting to leak wickets now. England will do well to reach 300 at this rate.

Madness by the english
Brook dropped by Labuschagne
278/4 at stumps.
Some proper test match batting from Brook and Stokes to edge England back into it.
They need a century from one of this pair
Very long tail once the 6th wicket falls.

Awful from Joe, the No ball effort was worse than ball out though.
