    Well I never. 

    Didnt think at 3.30pm we'd get them out below 265.

    If only we could keep Wood fit for every Test.
    He makes such a huge difference. 
    If Wood and Archer hadn't got the injury issues we'd have such a different attack.

    Not too many miles in the legs either which is good

    263 all out.

    30 ish overs to bowl theoretically. Hopefully we can get to 100 for only a couple down. Would be our day at that point.

    What an absolutely fantastic display from Wood. When he's fit and firing he's different class

    Blowing the tail away is such a crucial aspect of genuine fast bowlers.

    Think we might be rueing that drop by Root. Had them on the ropes at lunch. Now looking they will build a good score. 
     what I said at 3pm.

    Or a class spinner, the tail ends normally aren't good enough to nick a swinging seaming ball.

    And it will be interesting how Brook, at 3, approaches it from that perspective

    Groundsmen for remaining Ashes Tests take note - give us a wicket that is Wood friendly !!!

    Smash it all over the place. Reach parity. Pull out. Have ten overs against them this evening.

    What a day of cricket again.

    Would have taken getting them for 265, frustrating it could have been about 150 but it's good.

    Now come on Crawley and Duckett!

    Old Trafford & The Oval are genuinely tailormade for Wood. Whether he can string 3 tests in a row together is another matter.

    I see that Notts have been on a Chelsea type raid in signing both Josh Tongue and Dillon Pennington from Worcestershire. To lose one quick is bad enough but to lose two for a county like Worcestershire is hard to take.

    I know Anderson would be gutted not to play at OT but Broad, Woakes, Wood and Tongue.  As 3 of them can bat could we get the leggie in as well?

    Turn and bounce in the last two tests...

    That score would have been 100 less had root not got butter from his sandwich all over his fingers!

    Notts love stealing from Leicestershire & Worcestershire

    Might potentially go Anderson for Broad

    I've always thought cricket needed some sort of transfer fee system to reward counties for their effort in bringing through players.

    Tomorrow should be a great day for batting

    Australia piling on the runs after we're bowled out for 123 tonight

    That is how to take a catch as wicket keeper. That flew off Duckett's bat.

    difference between the teams. They have a proper keeper. Bairstow wouldn't have got that,
