It was probably because their 1st innings was so short tbfI thought they were leading by a hundred at one point

England v India (Third Test) Headingley

You just know the Oval will take spin. Be like us to shoot ourselves in the foot
aye
Ashwin is gonna be an issue,
Ashwin certainty to come back in for Ishant as well.You just know the Oval will take spin. Be like us to shoot ourselves in the foot
Stokes has to come back in
Could see Buttler stepping out and Bairstow getting the gloves sooner or later
He isn’t terrible but he’s prone to errors and periods in games in the field that are just daft.

He literally always does. Win or lose.Kohli showing some humility
Fair enough he can be a bit Over the top on the pitch ( competitive) but hes always respectful after, win or lose

Root over Vaughan for me
like most captains then? Think he’s ok
I agree bairstow at 7 and pretty sure he will be
they’ll want Pope back in sooner or later
I think the fact we could easy because 2-0 up without our best player and a host of bowlers is really impressive
we’ve shown a lot of fight
No he doesn’tdid you not watch the series in India?

Rotating out your best bowler is madness for me. Plenty of time for him to rest his legs ahead of The Oval.

I thought you might get 50% if between 15 and 30 overs bowled.

As a person certainly
He is ok, and is growing into the role all the time and wins & performances like this help enormously, but it’s fair to say he’s had and is still having moments in the field that aren’t great, to say the least.like most captains then? Think he’s ok

Spoke very well there I thought and usually does, fronted up excellently after Lords also.
Superb batsman as well of course.
Pope has a lot to do to get back in here for me. Would rather see Livingstone get a chance.

In the ashes I meant, Jimmy has to play this series although he is 39. In an ideal scenario it would be nice to give him a rest

Malan has been a big positive also.

You fail to mention that Root has lost almost twice as many tests than Vaughan. Selective stats selection from a Joe Root fanboy I suspect.

And Vaughan had a far superior team. Arguably the best we have had in a generation but indisputably better than the current one.
