I think it was obvious it was a man management level Caldwell failed on. Wasn't there yesterday but from your list agree with all but Fox who, whilst capable of great saves, always has a goal costing mistake in him

Upto the organising body. If it was due to genuine injuries then would think they'd replay the match

Games cannot continue if a team has fewer than 7 players

When you look at Roglic results this season it's impressive. Fairly sure he'd won all but one of the ITTs he'd raced this year

Rohan Dennis just annihilated the field today. He caught his 3 minute man. Who was he? Primoz Roglic, just wow

The players thistle would likely want would be out of our price range I guess

Bairstow left out of test touring squad for NZ. Sibley, Crawley both called up

£15 for adults in a competition where it's on free to air TV and a team that'll bring no fans [emoji849]

Just changing code for a moment, I see Israel Folau is representing Tonga against the visiting GB team. I hope they all refuse to take the field if he's playing.

Can't remember which pundit said it but there's a reason the two best batsmen in the world, Kohli and Smith, bat at 4. Root any earlier than 4 is facing a new ball in all likelihood and diminishes the impact he can have. I get his conversion of 50s to centuries isn't great but his main strength for me has always been his ability to keep the scoreboard ticking over at a good rate creating pressure.

Not one for defending the board BUT the only reason McCall wasn't appointed ahead of Caldwell was that he wouldn't take the job to replace Archie. Think it was quite clear that even then he was the number one choice

Clyde fans in here need to remember they lost to a thistle team managed by Gary Caldwell. No matter how shite we are they are worse and have been less than irrelevant for more years than anyone can remember

Absolutely this.

I don't think you can describe his tenure in paisley as a failure. Won a league cup and kept them in the league season upon season playing decent football.

This has all the same hallmarks as the corresponding fixture at EEP last season except without being on TV for us to play extra shite.

At what point does the manager's jacket start to get shakey?

That is a magnificent catch from Burns

Got to knock off these last two wickets pronto. Pleased Woakes has a wicket, and a huge one at that.

Yes, I feel, a lot like Wood (and possibly Archer), you either get him causing the opposition no end of bother or no bother at all. There's no middle ground. Brilliant or expensive.

Roglic just looking imperious. A thoroughly deserved victory in the making. Be interesting to see how he does if he goes up against a real big hitter like Froome, Bernal or Nibali next season

The apocalypse would truly have been here if mitch Marsh had a 5 for and Sam Curran a hat trick in the same test

Be surprised if Smith doesn't get close to that total on his own. Looks a belter of a batting pitch

An interesting thought looking ahead is who the 4 bowlers should be for the winter tours. NZ is as close to English conditions as you'll get on tour so you'd imagine Anderson and Broad are shoe-ins. That leaves, potentially, Wood, Archer, Woakes, Overton, Curran, Ali and Leach fighting it out for 2 spots

If Buttler can get a score in this test I think it'll put Bairstow out the side for the winter tour. Get Sibley in at the top with Burns, Denly at 3, Root, Roy, Stokes and Buttler and then your 4 bowlers. Let's see how that works out.

Roy and Overton dropped for Woakes and Curran. Stokes playing as a specialist batsman as expected
