36-1 at Lunch, Lees looks much better with a 2 Leg guard rather than that awful off stump guard in the first test. 263 from 63 ... at just over 4 an over.

Tough ask chasing that total in the final two sessions of any cricket match.

England has a chance as long as they don't lose three or four crucial quick wickets.

Root and Pope back in the hutch, tbh very difficult to play two high class innings in the same test....

Can't win this now imo unless Stokes/Bairstow go full 20/20. Playing for a draw.

Well Bairstow did, excellent result and very good series win.

Absolutely delighted for England, a great test match and a great victory and series win. But I’m especially delighted for Jonny B, an innings like that is what makes cricket such an exciting game

I don’t know him personally but always had a bit of an affinity with Jonny as his dad lived down the road from us when I lived in Birkenshaw as a young lad and then his mum Janet lived nearby when we moved to East Bierley when I was 11 years old..

England would be lost without our Yorkies Root & Bairstow.
