Who a earth said I was an expert.
Indeed both teams have to bat, fully expecting Pak to get 600-2 ;-).
No retraction from me about Balance, I still reckon he's not good enough, but then neither is Vince, or Hales as an opener. I do wonder if Hales could bat 5, but the opening batsman cupboard is pretty bare...look slike a hole in the team that Bairstow (I do retratc about him) and Stokes cover up, but that is the nature of a test team, it is always, always in flux

Just listening to TMS, they said Anderson was swinging the ball both ways and Finn looked fast for the first time this summer
Pak all out for less than 200.
I can do good/rubbish for PAK as well!

I'll be impressed if you can get back to 600-2 again before play opens...;-)

Hopefully our seamers will do the job and the "experts" won't have to discuss Ali's performance with the ball

This is an attempt to get a wicket, I can see it being 250-1

Deep down you know your 600-2 was always right...

600 - 2 ? That's after about 30 overs of Ali then?

A few years and Hameed at Lancashire will be good enough for opening bat.

He is, gets his head down and accumulates during an innings. One to watch as is leg spinner Matthew Parkinson also a Bolton lad
