Atrocious fucking batting - all 4 batsmen have gone out playing with hard hands at the ball & playing away from their bodies... amazed we chose to bat when their wickets are well known for seaming around a lot, we probably chose to bat first to give Boult more time to recover, well that really bit us in the arse big time.
Except for Williamson he played with soft hands on a tight line but he got done by the Lords slope. .
His hands weren't soft enough though & didn't get in line with the ball properly.
Yeah they were that’s why the ball died he got done by the slope which made in carry more than it usually does ,on another ground it wouldn’t have carried the rest were soft dismissals they played with hard hands and to late to a pitched up swinging ball.
Really they should have known better they have played enough in England to have a plan to combat the seaming ball.
They need a big kick in the arse. -

That’s embarrassing Blundel you leave the ball to a predominate in swing bowler.
That’s poor Potts is a front on open stance bowler it’s mostly coming in.Was a shocker by Blundell, you can't afford to leave ball when it's threatening the stumps.

Has Baz had an immediate impact?
Maybe? We batted erratically at best throughout the home summer, and shithouse in the second warmup game. England look fired up and aggressive, but I guess they're also back home, in the sun at Lords, after being beaten up in Oz and in the Caribbean.
I'd rather have their coach than ours I guess..

Has Kylo been taking batting tips from Timmee? Jesus that was brainless batting
At least he got more than 5 runs.

We needed him to stick around with Colin. He's capable of proper batting

Oh I agree. Brainless batting like the top order. Should have calmed down after he hit the four.

Southee gone for 26. 86-8
At least he got some decent runs for a tail-ender. Embarrassing stuff overall though.
-
Patel on 5 has more runs that no's 1-3 combined.
If we can get to say, 120-150, we might be able to salvage a bit of pride.
