Well done to Yorkshire's own Johnny Bairstow for getting England's 1st century of the series. Wonder what odds you would have got on him?

Kudos to Stokes for his first real contribution of the series and Wood's great little cameo.

Shame the real batsman couldn't do their job!!!

Get in Jonny fantastic knock am absolutely made up for him.

Proper test cricket today, no way this form is dead after today.

Not a win but drawing the game stops the whitewash.

Well done to those who stood up today! (On both sides)

[ChilwellWhite]

Yeah a decent result a draw it means we don’t face the humiliation of a whitewash. News just through Buttler misses the final Test damaged thumb or finger. Anyway let’s see Bairstow with the gloves.

Butler has mostly failed bar his near saving test innings, too many dropped catches for me.

Pope and Burns in (Hameed and Buttler out), keep the same bowling attack. Don't know if Stokes is too injured after his bowling.

That was a phenomenal finish.
I love it when you see a field like that…

Harry Brook who’s had a torrid time playing for Hobart Hurricane in the Big Bash has been picked to join the England T20 side who play in the West Indies next month. Chuffed for the lad

Jordan Thompson grabbing 3 wickets this morning for Hobart Hurricane

[Mr Russell]

Good start by England in Hobart, wonder if Jordan and Harry are there?

4/85

Robinson and Broad with 2 wickets, Manus knocked Wood and Woakes out of the attack. Real chance to get them out for under 200 but if things go back to normal they'll get 450!!
