----------------------------------------------------------------------
I've lost 14, don't see me showing off in the press about it

Hopefully it hasn't impacted his game like when Andy Fordham lost all that weight and became awful at darts.

ive gained 20kg and im still shat at everything

1 day to go

Burns
Sibley
Crawley
Denly
Stokes
Pope
Buttler
Bess
Archer
Broad
Anderson

Would be my guess for tomorrow’s team, not necessarily my personal choice. Tough between Archer and Wood, just think they love Archer too much. No chance of breaking up Jimmy and Broad atm

Woakes will miss out because unless there's injury problems then he always misses out. He's an underrated cricketer but you feel like he'll never be first choice. He might feature in the 2nd or 3rd test though depending on how the bowlers recover.

It's a toss up between Wood and Archer, I think they've love to play both but there will be future tests on flat decks where it'll be handy to have both. Regardless of who plays, I'm not too worried about the seamers doing their job. I just hope the top 6 can build on the promise they showed in SA.

copied me bro

How fit is Anderson then...?

Would imagine he’s fully fit?

Suppose he’ll always be a side strain away from being left out and there will always be that risk.

There has been speculation in the papers and elsewhere that Broad will be left out and Archer and Wood will both play. We'll see.

Typical, gonna be rained off ffs

Wish football could be rained off

Interesting discussion here.....

These uneducated all lives matters cants need to watch these interviews.

Listening to this puts everything into perspective.. so powerful from Holding

Takes the absolute piish how long it takes to get the umpires off their aerses after it stops raining

Jonathan Agnew
BBC cricket correspondent on Test Match Special:

'There's been a conference between the umpires, the coaches and the captains. It was a long discussion.

Lunch is going to be taken at 12:30 BST and then they will take another look at 13:10 BST.

It's not raining at the moment, it's actually quite hot and humid'.
