  • @MrExEssex

    I couldn't watch the last day's play of the Headingley test but it all looked pretty hopeless so I didn't care much. I got home and started the 5 min 19 sec highlights on RUclips expecting to see the inevitable. Sure enough, England offered a bit of resistance and then there was Buttler getting stupidly run out and I thought : Here we go - collapse time. And so when it got to 286-9 with 74 needed I assumed it was as good as over. The last 2½ minutes of the highlights were almost surreal. When England got it down to only 13 needed to win, I was thinking what a pity to get so close and still lose - a valiant effort. The last bit was just unbelievable! Now all we have to do is win the last two tests.
