Mark Butcher, Ben Gardner, Yas Rana and The Telegraph’s Will Macpherson reflect on the first Test of the English summer, which saw Ben Stokes’ side beat Zimbabwe inside three days at Trent Bridge.

There’s chat about Shoaib Bashir, the Jacob Bethell conundrum and the Test as a spectacle, before digging into the Sikandar Rasa saga and the latest action from the County Championship.

  1. Rishabh Pant is back in form. He just scored a ridiculous century in the IPL. Look out, England, with those mediocre seamers!

  2. Bashir still had poor economy and I know he may well get there and he will definitely improve but I just think this may still be a little too early for him

  3. Not sure why Yas is quoting Pope’s overall record, cashed in v non test quality opposition – just 772 runs in 35 innings v Australia and India

  4. Learnt that Bashir has the biggest nose in the game and he can snuff out wickets even in English conditions 😂
