If this is out I'm turning it off
This might well be alot easier to bat on post new ball and a bit of sun drying it out. Got to survive this burst with only another one down this session....
Unreal how Crawley looked clueless and is still on a run a ball 40

He's going to keep throwing the bat here. Who knows how good a brisk 70 will end up being on this pitch.
This is playing much better than I expected given the pictures yesterday. No uneven bounce.
That is beautiful ..
real good toss to lose
Not a bad toss to lose this 
Crawley asking the umpire if it was a no ball was funny..

Best of luck out of form Jonny Bairstow with a technical flaw for being bowled through the gate.
I'm watching a different test match I think.
Surprised Siraj isn't back on from the other end. Maybe Akash only has one more in him.
Nah it hasn’t looked easy at all. Even a couple of boundaries that Crawley hit were mistimed.
Will be interesting how likes of siraj will do from the other end. If nothing happens for siraj, England are going to miss wood a lot.
Don't think you've seen uneven bounce. There's been movement.
Jonny looks seriously pumped. He's here for a good time not a long time.
Not sure how the Umpire gave that not out
Oh Jonny.
That looked very plumb. Shame we nearly saved that session. Now we are back to being fecked.
They replaced Joel Wilson in body but not in spirit.Not sure how the Umpire gave that not out
Nick Knight is a pretty good commentator.
Barely gets the chance to do it for Sky in home summers. Usually the host or on County Cricket.
I'm not enjoying today's game of England v DRS.
How on earth did he so quickly conclude that is bat first.
Its India vs DRS given all the decisions have been given not out on field.
Not much you can do about thatYou have to be kidding me.
Three day test here we come.

200 a good score on this pitch then
Wonder when foreign batsmen will learn stop playing on back foot to full balls in India, the ball doesn't bounce much most times and something it does that.
This pitch
You could play on the front foot. Root doesn't get out to that.
Don't like these pitches tbh. Gives a chance to opposition spinners to look much more threatening than their actual ability. Still remember how that feck all Australian left armer took 7 wickets against us.
200 a good score on this pitch then
We don't have the bowlers to cause the same problems. But 200 keeps us in the game for a while.
150 more likely.
That particular ball gets anyone. It rolled.
I agree in an ideal world you get forward but not sure it mattered there.
Moment of the match for me when Ravi Shastri asked Greame Swann about what type of bowler Akashdeep is.
Easy to say that after you’ve seen the ball bounce 10cm. Root’s been playing on the back foot to the spinners so far.
Shastri must have started drinking early today

Might aswell this test match isn't lasting long.
You avoid getting out to that by luck and nothing else. May as well have been bowled underarm.
