Sky Sports Cricket Podcast

Have England got enough runs to win the fourth Test - and if not, how many more do they need?

That was the key question as Ebony Rainford-Brent joined Bob Willis and Charles Colvile for The Cricket Debate after England reached stumps on day three on 260-8 with a lead of 233 runs.

Bob analyses a "fantastic batting performance on a difficult pitch" and gives his verdict on whether Keaton Jennings has done enough to get another gig in the fifth Test at the Oval.

Meanwhile, Ebony explains why she thinks it was a bizarre decision to send Moeen Ali up the order to bat at three above Joe Root.

The captain looked in better nick before he was run out ball-watching - but whose fault was it? Bob and Ebony explain why they're on opposite sides of the fence on this one.

The pair also have their say on Ben Stokes' application at the crease, Jonny Bairstow's 'travesty' of an innings and Ravichandran Ashwin's lack of impact on a pitch that seemed well-suited to his skills.
