De Kock is incredible
So joint 6th in dismissals. And 7th for batting
I prefer De Fanny if I’m honest but each to their own.
This. It’s a shite stat.
A better and more meaningful stat would be drops/missed stumpings per Test.

He’s the captain, for reasons that are obvious.
They also have little in the way of options, most of the Sheffield shield keepers are into their 30s already
Who captains england if root is ill this week?
Buttler will probably. But he’s 3rd in line at best.
You’re not comparing the two things seriously I hope
It’s an example to show why buttler won’t be dropped. He is in the management group of the team. I keep saying it but it never sinks in
I get it. But it’s not the same thing
Broad - 3 reviews lost in the first 3 overs
Agreed. I’m hoping buttler improves his glove work, no doubt it will be getting worked on.
thats my view, it’s for others now to debate this. I’m waiting for a phone call

The Pakistan keeper was excellent behind the stumps in the first test
That was surprising, but I was thinking more of the bowling reviews. I'd fully expect him to charge past the batsman towards the slips celebrating whilst making a 'T' above his headI think you’re being harsh, he chose not to review his dismissal on Saturday
He was, that was probably the worst thing for Buttler, the comparison was so stark. Wouldn't have looked so bad if it had still been Dowrich.
