Everything going along rather well.
Work expands to fill the time available, so why do today what can be put off until tomorrow.

Buttler didn't open with Cook iirc, he was sent in with Moeen when they had the t20 style chase against Pakistan i think

Is Haseeb a write off?

Ravi2 gets Cook. Something in the pitch all morning and Cook had just poked a catch through point.

Has and Keats?

bit of a silly dismissal by cook

jadeja's first over, just have a look at him and get used to the pace he bowls at before dancing down the pitch
