Noooo, don't say it Derby!!!

Both those wickets excellent bowling. Having said that, I know he's getting some runs, but Roy looks like he hasn't picked a vat up before. My prediction, out in the next 5 minutes or a 70-80.

Australia have stuck at it and have eventually got some reward. Hopefully the rest of our batsmen dig in like Root and Burns.

Roy isn't a test player with such a weak defensive technique.

Roy is just a bish bosh flat track bully. No guile, no craft, no technique.

Struggle to make the follow-on at this rate.

You can't become a successful test match batsman without a tight defence. Roy is a one day/T20 batsman (a fine one as well) and nothing more than that.

RIP Abdul Qadir. I had the pleasure, if you can call it that, of watching him skittle England out at The Oval in 1987 in my first day at a test match aged 11. We didn't have a clue how to play leg spin then and nothing has changed!
