  1. He's never seen Airplane. Unacceptable.

    Shall we draw him a list up?

    Matt Henry is a fool. Discussion complete. How else can you explain the omission of Sharknado?

  3. WI 86-4

    Target 312

    Ben Stokes is off the field.

    And on it, Jermaine Blackwood is carrying on slashing, this time standing tall and cracking a delightful four through gully. Shamarh Brooks then benefits as Stuart Broad dives over the ball and allows them to steal a couple of runs.

  4. Matt Henry has just voiced a very controversial opinion in the office.

    "I don't think any film made before 1990 is worth watching."

    Discuss.

    Bess has bowled very full. He needs to drag his length back. It takes a while to get used of the pressure of being expected to take wickets. Bess hasn't had much experience of that.

  7. WI 79-4

    Target 312

    Hello! Jermaine Blackwood spanks another cover drive to the boundary. What a shot.

  8. Alison Mitchell
    BBC Test Match Special

    It looks like it has kissed the bat handle. I think it goes down as a review missed.

  9. WI 74-4

    Target 312

    Oh, that delivery flicked the handle of the bat on the way through!

    They should have reviewed!

  10. Alastair Cook
    Former England captain on BBC Test Match Special

    It definitely hit the arm. It is just whether it brushed the handle on the way through.

  11. There's a noise. It's definitely hit Brooks' back arm, but did it flick the glove on the way through?

  12. Alastair Cook
    Former England captain on BBC Test Match Special

    I think it has come off his forearm.

  13. WI 72-4

    Bounce - and is that caught behind?

    Chris Woakes gets a delivery to spit and rise up at Shamarh Brooks and he gets into a horrible tangle as he tries to get out of the way. Has it just brushed the glove? England opt against the review...

    Re 14:28 If every bowler did it, it would be annoying but the dramatic facial expressions are Broad's thing and a thing I also find very amusing.

    You will very rarely mention Rahul Dravid in the same sentence as Jermaine Blackwood but Dravid would have been proud of that, Blackwood playing against the spin.

  16. WI 72-4

    Minimum of 61 overs remaining

    I really like Jermaine Blackwood.

    He gets his foot forward, gets behind a far too short delivery from Dom Bess and drives him beautifully through mid-off.

  17. I guess the counter-argument to that is that Broad doesn't know. He thinks everything's out. And he's amazed when it isn't.

    Here's Dom Bess.

    Sam Quigley: Re. Andy 14.27 I feel like Broad's no look celebration is more akin to a footballer wheeling away celebrating before the ball has hit the net after hitting a perfect free kick. When you know, you know.

  19. Carlos Brathwaite
    West Indies all-rounder on BBC Test Match Special

    This is how Jermaine Blackwood bats best. He needs to stay positive and get into good positions.

  20. WI 65-4

    Target 312

    Play is being held up by a medical glove that has blown onto the pitch.

    2020 in a sentence, there.
