“An ode to the shit box” is the 2,500 words after play we didn’t know we needed

Plenty of shitboxes in that England batting line up

Can GH or PL (or someone!) explain what happened with Uzzie not opening today - it wreaked of under 10s

And 18 wickets in a day on a deck that’s not that spicy - can you truly say we are watching Test cricket? This is “fast forward” cricket, yes, but oh so disappointing a standard after all the build up.

Stokes first 4 wicket deliveries were nothing special, seriously

All comments welcome - including to the contrary
