There is one man that seems to be going under the radar at the moment who should be in contention, providing a different aspect for the faster bowling. That is Sam Curran, left arm and left handed batsman, scoring a lot of runs.

Wood and Woakes in

Anderson dropped after two lean test matches - England's top bowler dropped for a must win match

Brook up to 3 keeping Root at 4 - we will require a better performance from Root at Headingley

Media saying the wicket at Leeds will be docile and lifeless - in one word useless to the players and the crowd alike

At the end of June Yorkshire declared at 550 against Gloucestershire at Headingley - Boycotts dream

Anderson has been far from England's top bowler this series really. Require better batting from nearly all of them! Especially Crawley.

Hopefully Bairstow remembers to stay in his crease when he has the bat...

Perfectly timed. Great batting that was to watch. Now need to strike our way through the tail.

The wicket on teatime really helped. Keep it under 275 and make sure we don't lose too many wickets this evening... :)
