I'm not sure how being a regular red ball bowler stops him cutting his finger?
It’s a blister isn’t it, not a cut. More bowling over the last couple of years would have hardened the area where he’s got the blister. |

Yup. If I stop playing guitar for even a few days and then pick it up again the tops of my fingers feel more sensitive

Haven't seen that, press were reporting it as a cut initially. |

Probably because the injury has been caused by the amount of bowling he has done in this match, something that he's not been used to doing for quite some time (only bowls a handful of overs in T20 cricket) |

Same way that someone who hasn't picked up a guitar in years is going to shred their finger trying to play a show. Nothing to do with the colour of the ball, just volume of bowling it. What do we think the chances of Stokes declaring at some point around tea today are? (assuming we're not bowled out). |

Definitely see a declaration today, especially with tomorrows forecast. Imagine we will try and get to around 300-350 ASAP before declaring. |

Bairstow goes.
Could really do with another 80-100 here.

I’m hoping for a bit more. This will be the key partnership (obviously) if we are to get a really tough score to chase |

All out.
Lead by 280. Very finely poised.

A cracking game this, living up to the hype so far.
