Shows how bad our spinners are when you watch this guy.

This is excellent bowling, shows how abysmal Leach and Bess were

Texted my mate at tea interval - I said you can guarantee our openers will flake this

Yeah class above spin bowling.

Not going to be too harsh on the batsmen cause opening in tests is the hardest thing and there's barely anyone one any good at it now. Who else even is there to select.

Yeah he’s a quality bowler is Embalmingfluidya (spelling)

I would have hoped we've selected the players that are going to apply themselves... Just lacking somewhat for me

Burns looking better and better by the innings.

We know Sibley and Crawley are top young bats but this has been a bit of an education for both

The spinners at doing us silly here

Worried about Sibley

Quality from Root, looks in good nick. Hope he goes on from here.

Desperate review

Effortless 50 for Root

Just shows how poor and flaky the openers were

98/2 at stumps. Majestic stuff from Root.

I don't like admitting it, but it does show it was a good call (or at least a risk worth taking) to bring Bairstow along - he has plenty of experience playing overseas.

Still shouldn't be anywhere near the Ashes squad though, considering his weakness against quick straight bowling

Quality from Root and solid again from Bairstow. He needs to stay in for as long as possible with Root tomorrow as England need to go past SL here and bat for another couple of days.

Good to see Root get his form back. Hopefully he can convert again.

Roots not looked troubled once this entire series. If he can take this form into India we might actually sneak a game.

Would have been 90 all out if I hadn't gone for a walk. Welcome lads

Early wake up for the Root double ton
