Ebony Rainford-Brent and Bob Willis join Charles Colvile to reflect on a day when England rallied from 107-4 with Ben Stokes and Jos Buttler to the fore after another top-order collapse, featuring another failure for Keaton Jennings.
Our guests also discuss…

- whether or not Rory Burns and Joe Denly have pushed their case for Ashes selection
- how Stokes has tweaked his technique and played with positivity on the front foot
- why the Windies opted to put England in to bat and how much they missed banned skipper Jason Holder
- why England's team selection 'beggared belief' in Bob's eyes, in particular the 'ridiculous' decision to recall Keaton Jennings at the expense of Ben Foakes
- the thinking behind batting Jonny Bairstow at seven after dropping down the order from three
