    Was the umpire giving it? If he'd not walked we might have had to waste 2 minutes on a review ;)

    WICKET TO WOOD. SMITH OUT!!!
    Are you sure it wasn't a Rory McIlroy using a 3 wood 😉

    Hopefully he proves me wrong, but really don't like Ali in the side Bat and Ball.... goes for too much with the ball and only the odd gem which gets a wicket, not good enough for me. But clearly there is no better spinner in England, depressing... Come on Ali prove me wrong! 
    He's already done a brilliant job in this Test, more with bat

    No it can't be McIlroy - he finished hours ago

    Just coming on here to say that's it's not happening is it......and then I see Smith has gone. 

    Still think its got DRAW written all over it. Tomorrow looks like a washout & not much better for Sunday. Need to get at least 2 more tonight, but just cant see it myself.

    I think we need to get one more tonight and then it’s game on, even if tomorrow is a washout

    The party stand are more interested in throwing any old shit they can find on the floor than watching. Missed the last wicket shielding so have gone to back of stand to watch on sky screens. 

    The facilities here are also dreadful (leaking portaloos) but defo the most amount of ‘day release’ idiots I’ve ever encountered at a match.

    Old Trafford should have a fucking roof like Wimbledon !
    Did both Wood and Woakes get picked too late in this series ?

    Doing my nutt in that we are 2-1 down but have appeared to be on top in large parts of this series.

    Why Woakes didn't play at Lord's is still beyond me.

    I asked for 4 so happy with that session. All down to how much time we get to bowl. Need a bit of luck but at least we're well in with a chance.

    Got a feeling we're gonna regret batting so long, but it is what it is.

    Think we might need another 70 overs to get them out? Especially if they go into full-on defensive mode. Whether we get those overs over Saturday and Sunday is another question.

    What I would give for another 30-45 minutes of bowling tonight…

    Of we had given ourselves an extra hour to bowl at them we would almost certainly of had to bat again.

    How we could do with the 25 odd overs we have lost over 3 days due to slow over rate.
