Two dropped catches already.
This is going to be so costly for England at this rate.

England were poor. Fielding bad, catching terrible.
But the bowling was pathetic. Inconsistent in their length and line and all those no balls
However the good news was Josh Tongue. He's quick and managed to get movement out of an oldish ball.
An option for England in future years is a battery of really quick bowlers, if we ever get Archer and Wood fit again.

Lords is a wonderful cricket ground, but the atmosphere can be a little flat compared to the other venues. England needed a lift that the crowd couldn't provide.

Two quick wickets for England..
But Smith is on 99 not out

The three Just stop Oil protrestors who invaded Lord's yesterday have been charged with "aggravated trespass" and will appear in court next month.
Aggravated trespass - bet that won't amount to much and they'll just get a slap on the wrist.

The one thing you can say about this test match is that it isn't dull

Big improvement from England after yesterday's poor effort. Good bowling plans limited the damage but runs still flowed.
A competent opening stand which was watchful initially, but soon picked up the boundaries.
A tricky spell after tea when a shot-pitched barrage saw 3 wickets fall for 44, when it all looked a bit chaotic until Stokes surprisingly restored a calmness.
The match is in the balance with much hard work before England reach parity. Ideally a 50-100 run lead would be handy, but the pitch should hold up & with Lyon expected to take no further part in this match & potentially the series, England may see the tide turn.
Australia will come hard again at England in the morning, with just Baistow to come, & a long tail, it could still be Australia with a 50-100 lead. The expensive Starc could still show his worth as he is one of the best at removing lower order batsmen.
