England players' performances reviewed after third Test at Edgbaston

Ben Duckett - 4 - Another quiet Test for Duckett whose total of 18 runs across the match was only three more than at Headingley last week. Could do little about his first-innings dismissal but the way he hit a drive straight to mid-off in the second was really poor.

Emilio Gay - 5 - So unlucky to be the latest victim of the poor Lord's pitch after reaching 31 in the second innings. The third Test at Edgbaston could be a big week for the opener.

Jordan Cox - 7 - Very impressive again in making 55 in the first innings. As wickets fell around him, Cox remained composed. Yet to make a score that completely forces the selectors' hand but he is building a strong case to stay when Jacob Bethell is fit again.

Joe Root - 5 - Scores of four and 24 as England's captain fell lbw in both innings. Seven of his nine Test dismissals this summer have been in that fashion. It is not a crisis... yet…

Harry Brook - 6 - Nothing spectacular from Brook, who made 15 and 34, but he took a more restrained approach than in similar recent Tests when faced with difficult conditions.

Dan Lawrence - 7 - After being dropped and then run out in making 17 in the first innings, Lawrence responded with a useful 54 in the second that suggested he does have the skills for this role, with the bat at least.

Jamie Smith - 8 - His best performance for a year. Smith's 61 in difficult conditions in the first innings was perfectly played. Again, kept well up to the stumps to Ollie Robinson. His glovework has gone up a level.

Gus Atkinson - 5 - The one member of England's pace quartet who is struggling for wickets. Bowled quickly on day four but still only has one scalp in the series. His 45 with the bat in the first innings was handy.

Ollie Robinson - 9 - This is turning into Ollie Robinson's summer. After another eight wickets, England's seamer now has 23 wickets in three Tests at an average of 8.34 since his recall.

Jofra Archer - 8 - Brilliant in the first innings when he was unfortunate to finish with just the three wickets. His bouncer to dismiss Babar Azam on day four was a throwback of Archer's fearsome debut on the same ground.
