Pope drops Warner. A very simple chance. I think Bairstow would have taken it.

Good to see both Uzi and Davy use there feet to negate the swing and seam. Thought this might be an advantage the English bats had.

Warner down the wicket to Broad taking out the swinging ball.. I think he is finally getting batting in England.

Bring the Tongue on at both ends.

Stokes misses the stumps by nearly 2 metres from 15 metres away. Terrible.
