    63 runs in the first hour want 70 in the second, doesn't matter if we lose wickets doing it.  It's getting darker

    Brook up to 50 now, wouldn't mind seeing him open the taps up a bit and let loose

    Start swinging and then let them bat.

    Yep - been a little bit underwhelming this morning. Need to let loose now. Woakes and Wood to come too so no reason to hold back

    Harry Brook has 10 Innings of 50 or more in his first 18 innings, the 3rd fastest in test history; Don Bradman took 19 Innings.

    Herbert Sutcliffe is in 1st place with 15 innings.

    Must’ve been very fine and just passing through. Not seeing it on the camera lens anymore.

    Think I'd be declaring pretty sharpish. We're wasting time

    Looks like we'll declare at lunch. Been disappointing this morning. Yes, they've bowled a lot better but we've not scored at teh required rate

    Woakes gone first ball. Hazlewood outside edge with the swing.

    This movement certainly isn't bad news for us. Question is, how soon do we give it before we try to reap the benefit of that?

    scoring almost 5 runs an over in a test match and you want us to get a move on?
