After 171/3 in 59 Overs, England’s whole team took charge and batted so good yesterday. No one had scored a century but England declared it’s innings at 490 with eight down. AN Cook scored 23 and out, MD Stoneman smashed 52 and out when 38.3.
T Westley scored just eight runs, Captain himself (JE Root) scored 72 and out when 68.3 he’s gone, at the second grab! This is a huge moment. A short ball outside off, Root is cramped for room as he tries to play it down through gully. Can’t get over the top of the ball, picks out Shai Hope at gully who needs to grabs to hang on 212/4. DJ Malan scored 58, JM Bairstow † 18, MM Ali 84, CR Woakes 61 and SCJ Broad 14. RL Chase took three wickets, ST Gabriel took two, JO Holder also took two and D Bishoo took one wicket.
