And Compton has failed, is the wrong side of 30, and has the grand total of 9 Tests to his name (This is Root's 8th I think).

The clammer to bring Compton back is just bizarre IMO.

We have had people kicking off because Cook chose to bat in 'perfect batting conditions', others saying the openers are shite, Root needs moving back down the order, Compton, who was said to be shite, now needs bringing back etc. Imagaine if we were losing the series :roll::lol:

Well played Bairstow. Lets kick on lad.

Went out earlier - how have Bairstow and Bell batted?

Both very well. Bell has looked in sensational touch at times.

I'm listening to it on BBC R5 extra. That Henry Blowfeld is an absolute bafoon. Talks a load of tripe and gets all of the names wrong.

He's brilliant man. :-?

I could listen to him all day.

Haway belly lad, he's the main man.
 
Well done Belly, got us out of a hole. Push on to 150 now.

Back to back Ashes centuries, both in pressure situations. Big up Ian Bell.

One of only a few to score 3 or more against Australia as well. Edit: Three in a row in fact.
