Well. In a way. Look at the scoreboard. It doesn't look too bad. Alright, they've conceded a lot. But, they've got their reply going. Eat it one over at a time.
But, that masks it. Utterly devoid of ideas with the ball. Save short & wide. A horrendous mix up between Bairstow & Cook off Woakes. Hales survives just 13 balls & is out before the end of the sixth over. Compo scratches 19 off 52.
Root & Cook have dug ‘em out from 78-2.
I really enjoyed de Kock’s innings. Played his shots, got his rewards. “Best Bowlers in The World” bowling at him without a Slip.
I've said before. Root not out overnight. Out in the morning. My Words Mark. Hope I'm wrong.
Today's beer was Big City Brewing Co. City Street IPA from a bottle at 5.5%. Lovely Hop smell. Begins Seville Orange. Nice bitter finish.
268/550
