Agreed Dave a flurry of posts means dire straights for England. Root and burns steady accumulation doesn’t get those fetch fingers twitching quite so much.

Highlights on Beeb. Sibley incredibley managed to play all round a straight one. Crawley is just a blonde Vince. Burns still in, God knows how, he looks soooo wrong

I’ve been banging on about Burns being useless for at least nine months

Ugly as sin but it’s effective-ish. We aren’t exactly flooded with better opening options.

Burns has the worst technique, but it doesn't matter, he's still there.

yes but he is likely to have a trot of really bad scores, he needs a haircut too.

'he needs a haircut too.'
That's some old school curmudgeoning OS. I'm sure a suited and bowler hatted spectator said something similar about an exuberantly coiffed participant in the 1877 Test 😉.

On TMS earlier, Aggers said to Vaughan, as De Grandhomme walked out to bat, 'Do you think Colin wakes up in the morning and thinks, yes I look cool'.
Vaughan said yes, a mullet is trendy again now, and Colin is a great name for someone with a Mullet.

Cool cricketers? I just think of Imran Khan and feel ill.
Kumar Sangakkara is probably the coolest talking head in the game though.

So watched the highlights from today after missing yesterday.
1. Boundaries are about 4miles in. Why?
2. No wonder Rory Burns keeps getting out - he's batting with his head outside leg stump.
It's a wonder he knows where his off stump is with that trigger movement
