That's what I thought, it's day 2.....
we might well skittle them out and that will be that, a 2.5 / 3 day test.
Would have thought it would be better to ask stokes and bairstow to come in and play some bazball, in the way they will likely be expected to in more challenging games later this summer.
On the other hand, I guess they're being professional and doing what they would do if this was an Ashes match.
