Dhawan looks like a different player.

Batting nicely.

England nicked the first session but no doubt about the second. Could well be looking at 450 plus on that pitch

Seldom seen a more unbalanced 11. What exactly is butlers role at 7?

Rashid apart from a catch has been useless, would much prefer a five man seam with Root adding some part time spin on this pitch.

Rahane just dropped by Anderson

And well taken but what does he actually offer to be ahead of Curran in the pecking order?

Just can't see why he is in the team, if its as a batter he should be at five not hiding behind the allrounders.

I was talking about the Anderson drop.

I agree regarding Rashid.

Yes was difficult, the ball was flying at pace but these are the chances that win and lose matches
