Jennings giveen a gift to welcome him to test cricket, let's hope he takes advantage of India's largess.

cook is always like this at the start of his innings

he made his first 20 runs at a run a ball in the last test before any of the bayliss comments about being positive

Jennings looking very nervous

Should probably have caught that

Two more gifts follow to get him off the mark with consecutive boundaries

over 4 an over, Bayliss will be saying "see what I mean guys, that's what I want from you all."

thats early in the game to have a warning for encroaching on the pitch against you

think thats gonna be an umpires call outside the line

Jennings plays forward with his feet but not with his bat, the spinners will love that technique.

Umpire's call. Cue a dozen outraged emails to cricinfo.

I'm not bothered by things like this, anyone who is qualified should be selected. But former SA U19 captain Jennings seems to be getting an easier ride than a few other qualified players got. From people who are bothered.

Couldn't do much worse than duckett

Another opening partner to have outscored Cook to have been dropped...

Just waiting for Jennings to score a four so I can add him to the list.

by **hopeforthebest** » Thu Dec 08, 2016 5:43 am

All the players sitting watching like a group of prison inmates in that TV picture.

decent start. How many partners has Cook had since Strauss retired?
