I don't usually watch cricket during the day as I'm too busy. But I've just seen Sam Curran's antics after his lucky dismissal of South Africa's Bavuma. Utterly disgraceful considering the guy has just scored a superb ton. Hopefully the management will have a word with him and maybe it even warrants a fine. The commentators were certainly not happy with it judging by their reactions. I sincerely hope he apologizes to the batsman.

I'm abroad at the moment so have only just seen the score on BBC Sport.

Bavuma had the last laugh 😃 . Extremely lucky wkt for Curran after a great ton from Bavuma (who was battling with cramp at one time) and he still danced down the pitch and got in Bavuma's face to help him on his way. I just don't like that sort of thing in cricket.

I just don't like that sort of thing in cricket. especially when you then end up losing the game and the series.

Very nice to see that Sam Curran was fined for the way he confronted Bavuma in the last game. I don't dislike the lad, but it was way over the top for me & completely unnecessary.

Roy’s good form didn’t last long - out for 1 today.

Great bowling performance from Jofra Archer. Fingers crossed he continues to impress.

Roy’s good form didn’t last long - out for 1 today. . Yes, but I don't think he's become a bad player. It's probably down to a loss of confidence. He needs to put together 5-6 good innings to regain it.

Another win for England, and again in some style!
Anderson & Broad just keep on going, amazing performances.

Are we heading towards an Ashes tour without BBC Radio Test Match Special and with fumbling with Talksport 2 in the middle of the night, at exactly the time of high excitement in English cricket?

Probably, the youtube highlights just posted are only things I've seen about this test match. Tried to listen to Talks**te online the other day but the website said I had to create an account first. They can do one!!!!

They can do one!!!! BBC sport when I've got up and then the highlights on YouTube. That, sadly is as good as it gets for me. I do hope that there are at least extended highlights on terrestrial TV this summer.

If TMS is dumped by the BBC I will be demonstrating. Absolutely disgusting that it's not on BBC or ITV etc. How are youngsters to be enticed into cricket ( especially International cricket)if it's not available for everyone to watch ?

One 'o clock in the morning, ask Alexa.

I must confess that this is the first I have heard about the dropping of TMS; is this just an unsubstantiated rumour, or does it have a factual basis?

The BBC has the home series, right up until the 2024 home Ashes series. The contract was renewed in 2017. who knows what bids the ECB will get in 2024, but there's bound to be pressure to keep TMS on the BBC.
According to Wiki, "The BBC also covers winter series, but has lost certain rights to TalkSport over the years as broadcasting rights for tours are controlled by the host country."

I do wish that the original post had contained that qualification/clarification - it was a bit like some newspaper headlines: misleading at best, and mendacious at worst!
