Anyone else fancy the 9/1 to pull this off? Worth a tenner imo
Time for coooooool heads imo...and a Joe Root double century
Bairstow's technique is shocking. His left hand might as well be made of wood for all the control it exerts over his strokeplay.
There really is an alarming dearth of young batting talent coming through. Root, Ali and (to a much lesser extent) Bairstow have sort of masked it, but the cracks are starting to show quite badly. You've got two of the top three who simply are not test class batsmen.
