Not saying Silverwood is beyond blame, but this stems from the top the ECB big.

They need to take the blame for scheduling but he's absolutely clueless man. Every captains strategic decision where he's had a chance to consult the coach is plain shite.

Silverwood should be fired, he's worse than Moores. Sacked the head of selectors then picked people out of a hat.

No surprise everything went tits up this morning after he'd injected his two pennorth.

Not sure about that. There are no decent batsmen waiting in the wings for him to select.

The odd spot in the side can be debated but Root, Anderson, Stokes and Broad can only paper over so many cracks.

Nothing will change if that happens. We hammered these ***** in 2014 and 2018 and have been second best since day one despite winning the toss twice.

My first thought on Thursday was not 'Can we take advantage of decent bowling conditions on the first morning?" but 'Shite, do we really want to bat fourth?'

Fully agreed this is possibly one of the worst English teams I’ve watched in the test game

 

[Lawrenceslongthrowin]

Why’s he playing at those balls down legside the moron

Daft Kernt pointing his finger

 

[Concordsafc]

Total cockends India’s team like

 

[hudson88]

Bite his f***ing finger, waving it about like that

India have gone a bit here like.

I’ve never thought that up to now but it would be worth knowing just how much of a say he had on tactics today, because the plan this morning was horrendous. In the space of an hour we went from firm favourites to rank outsiders.

His selection is hideous too, but again I’d be interested to know who has the most say on that.

Wicket imminent

Evens India, 4/5 the draw.

Buttler literally edged less than 20 seconds after I posted

 

[mackembhoy]

Did you see them put 100 balls left.

Trying to make the hundred happen even during the tests. Pathetic

If we escape it’s hard to believe we would be level after 2 tests. They were miles better than us at TB and rain helped us. Here we have had the best of the conditions by a distance and are scrambling to save the game.

 

[scotch]

60 minutes lads..start delaying tactics now

 

[Steak Pie]

Always been a huge fan of Buttler, few I'd rather have in this position than him.

They’re a miles better side than us. TB was interesting tho, that was far from a formality. Would have been their highest ever chase in England iirc

 

[Kumbuka]

Bit annoying how at this time yesterday we couldn’t bowl with the new ball when we had momentum and now it’s bright sunshine!
