Even then I'd still have chosen Prior!

I'd prefer Trott over Bell as we have plenty of stroke makers in that side. The second opener is the real weak link in that side, Strauss in the 2010s was on the decline yet still was the best option!0
-
Definitely Prior over Bairstow, he had a great 2011 from memory.1
-
Horrible dismissal for Sibley there. Had fought nicely. Appears to have a spin weakness?0
-
A great start but 92-1, Sibley falls to the spinner0
-
121-1 at close, a much better performance than expected0
-
Tomorrow is potentially going to be a cracking day - 255 to win with 9 wickets in hand.
Planned Sky safari has now been cancelled!0 - Sponsored links:

Burns batted very well but then, unfortunately, gave it up.
Currently 157-2 and requiring another 2190 -
Denly out LBW and a review lost.
Time for him to prove to himself and everyone else that he can take his innings to the next level. You don't hit double figures in 14/16 innings against the bowling attacks of Australia, New Zealand and South Africa (average 33 and five 50s) without having something about you.

Just 50 runs scored in the first session- and two wickets lost. At this rate either we will be all out today or the Sky boys will have to cancel tomorrow's planned safari too!
205 runs to win with 7 wickets in hand. Root and Stokes at the crease0 -
Since the start of the ashes Burns is England's highest run scorer. Quite incredible given he opens the batting!!1
-
Maharaj goes for 13 in his first over after lunch.0

Stokes out trying to cut/run down a ball that was too close to him to do so off Maharaj
172 needed with 6 wickets in hand0 - Sponsored links:

That really should be the end of Bairstow. Throwing your hands at a wide ball is not the way to play Test cricket6
-
Bairstow is not good enough to play test cricket1

222-5

That shot from Bairstow has actually made me very angry.
Not sure I have ever seen a worse shot for a situation (probably a slight overreaction).
Spent 5 mins swearing at my tv.3 -
Double nelson struck

Root gone for 48. 232-6

Butler going into 1-day mode. A 4 & then a 6 in consecutive balls. Dont think this will last long.0
-
Now Curran gets onto the act. Once these 2 are out then the end won't be too long coming.0
-
Didnt think it would be that soon though.....0
