I was worried if England dug in they'd have enough time to get the runs. But without Root I don't see that happening now.
Commentators attitudes have done an about face when Root fell.

I do like the rule about not losing your reviews on the Umpire call results.

I have said it in this thread probably 20 times but Aleem Dar is legitimately the worst umpire in cricket, I think he is also the most experienced now too
