    He's playing beautifully, Sibley's looking good as well.

    Don’t think the Channel 4 coverage is as good as Sky’s, but it’s nice for it to be back on free TV. Hopefully more eyes on it.

    If they're together at tea tomorrow they've done well.

    Why is there no highlights. I'm having to record the whole days play. Hope it has ebbed and flowed otherwise Laura is going to hate me tonight after soaps have gone off.

    If you go to the lunchtime slot they did a catch up of the first session but it's been steady away , nothing too exciting. Proper test match cricket.

    Probably put the curse on him, but Joe Root is just getting better and better! I know he's had his issues converting 50's into 100's, but he's such a pleasure to watch when in form...

    Its technically not CH4 coverage i believe, they are just taking the feed off the host broadcaster with a small studio team back in the UK

    Maybe because there coverage is all day they might not have enough time left in their daily schedule to fit highlights in as well ..I have enjoyed the coverage so far & they are showing highlights in the interval sessions .

    Root's 50th half century in his 100th test. Pride of Yorkshire!

    They said just before resumption after tea that highlights are available later on All 4. No time specified so I presume it will just be a downloadable piece that you find on their website, a bit like picking something from BBC iPlayer.

    It's annoying they can't do a highlights programme because Channel 4 is ***** anyway. It would get more viewers than Come Dine With Me.

    He also got his 50th half century in his 98th and 99th test, but thankfully he converted them into centuries.
