Yes. You've got to question the preparation or mental application
when it happens so consistently in our first innings of the series away from home.
They are bowling well but Root aside the balls that have got the batsmen out have not been particularly great, they could have left them all.
Mind you some of Stokes's leaves here are making me nervous!
