this team reminds me of just before vaughan took over and nasser stated he felt the odd man out and retired for the good of the team

take cook and bell out, they belong in the late 80 and 90s style of odi batting

Thought we played well today in places . I don't think Cook should be in the side but will be. Him and Morgan both need to contribute more. Liked the depth of our batting today should allow the top order to play with more freedom. 2 spinners or 1 depending on pitch.
 
Cook, batting during the power play at the top of the innings scored 10 runs from 17 balls when we're chasing more than a run a ball :rolleyes:

That paired with his usual average captaincy is a recipe for defeat.

Ali's superb innings papered over a lot of gaping cracks in the 'team'.

Aye, but he has real skills in hitting the ball with his pad, top notch was that.
