Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

There’s a chance here… plenty of scope for crushing disappointment but there’s hope

The aim tomorrow should be to bat with the aim of not losing. If the chance to win is there in the last session, then think about it.

However we know they will go for the win and most likely lose.

James Anderson has just said: " we are not batting for the draw tomorrow. We will win or lose this match"

Playing for a draw means batting for 2 days? Or is rain (or other weather) expected?

Play each ball on its merit. Fine for them to have an overall attacking strategy though. As um says though, unless weather is expected to come into it, no one is playing for a draw.
