England v India (2nd test) Lords

The disappointing thing for me is players like Curran and Burns haven't kicked on after promising starts to their careers, Sam is still young like.

Burns looks like he could be a stable opener. But then he goes through some woeful form.

Sibley not good enough, jury’s out on Crawley too. Root at 4 and Stokes at 5.

No idea who bats at 6 and were going to be totally fucked when Broad and Anderson do retire.

He’s just as likely to score runs as Buttler. I don’t want to turn this into a keeper discussion again, but he’s never a 6.

no course not but he’s batting there as stokes is out For 1 test

Ben foakes isn’t the answer

he’s been built up for some reason, helps that he plays for surrey

he was really poor in India

up for grabs who do we play is the question
Malan in at 3 would anyone else give him a go

burns is the better out of him sibley and Crawley

Pope couldn’t really bat that high could he

hameed good county scorer but showing he isn’t good enough for international cricket but only his first shot at it in a while

Carlson is a decent player but middle
Order which isn’t our main problem

We have big problems so who do we call on

You can’t judge Hameed after one test in five years.

A painful throwback to the revolving door of bits and pieces, pointless all-rounders of the mid-late 90s.

he will score runs at 5

there’s nobody in county cricket close to him

have you seen the likes of Burns man? Like he was invented in a lab

his hair says it all, utter disgrace of a man
