England v India - Third Test, 10/07


Archers rubbish, Stokes is terrible, Woakes toothless, Bashir is poor, Carse is average at best, Root is only playing for his batting.....

That should cover all bases for somebody to take a wicket :lol:
 
Woakes looks finished.

Carse we already knew isn't very good in England.

Bashir should be in the game and isn't.

Archer has to be used with kid gloves

Stokes makes things happen but he also needs to be used with kid gloves

Agree with Wardy here, it's a farce.

Did cross my mind about Bashir, looks like Stokes isn't trusting him.
 
Right, serious suggestions -
Next test -
Crawley, Woakes, Carse (rest) Archer (rest) Bashir out.
Who comes in

Bethell, Atkinson, J Overton, Cook, Dawson

Bumrah is the best bowler in the world, Jadeja has 200 plus wickets.

Think India have been carried by Bumrah in his matches and Deep in the last.
Why are we aiming for Pants finger, just means a better keeper will keep wicket for them, then Pant will bat the 2nd innings.
If Pant can bat like this then he should be fielding full stop

When Pant scores another century here. He will have the most for a keeper in England as designated wicket keeper.

Although from a stats perspective should it count as being the designated keeper 🤔

Definitely Atkinson (if fit) and Dawson. The latter is clearly the best spin option and he is also a good batter.
