The Bairstow dismissal was hilarious. The pearl clutching and crying is par for the course with the English. Nevermind Bairstow himself attempted the same thing at an earlier session.

Hilarious, also yes.

You'd have thought it would be Bazball approved.

Last 6 wickets for 23 runs. In fairness to the Brits there's no shortage of drama.

Hope England can now post a good score and hopefully keep the ashes alive.
