[3rd Test] England v Pakistan (Rose Bowl)

[Voice of fair play]

Hopefully this is the turning point. I’d love him to continue to score runs, and make me look like an arse. I think he’s fortunate he’s had so many chances

He probably is fortunate of the bare facts and stats to have so many chances, but that what selectors are they far, not necessarily just going off bare facts and stats, but sticking their neck out and saying I think he will come good, as this person has the talent and mental strength to succeed, hopefully they right

 

[TravellingMackem]

No he won’t

You’re wrong, get over it

@dixonsafc right there. Please read in future.

Oh absolutely.

Yea he’s played well by all accounts. Not disputing that. But he will cost us more wickets in future than other options. Didn’t matter today but again he wasn’t flawless.

@dixonsafc and the one to which ih he was responding.

Where in that post has he said there aren't better options?

Also factor in central contracts in to buttler having a lot of chances. He is on full whack covering all the different formats.

he is in place until injured imo.

 

[Mr Redknapp]

Ive scored 700 this summer, taken 30 wickets and caught twenty, no drops

On the Cricket 19?

 

[daventry cat]

So you genuinely believe that we don’t have any player that is a better keeper than Buttler? That would take more catches than him? Think it’s widely accepted he isn’t the best keeper and the balance argument between keeping and batting is whats keeping him in the side

turning into a proper tantrum for you isnt it

 

[TravellingMackem]

“there are no keepers that will drop less catches” ergo he is the best wicket keeper we have. Ergo there are no better options.

turning into a proper tantrum for you isnt it

If you say so

With a pencil and paper, no idea of these new fandangled gizmo games

 

[Twisted]

Crossed the threshold so no I reckon

thanks, wasn't sure of the law

“there are no keepers that will drop less catches” ergo he is the best wicket keeper we have. Ergo there are no better options.

Nobody has said there aren't any better keepers.

I'll leave you to go and cry into your pillow about Jos having a good game. Your patters lifting, you're making things up and it's ruining the match thread.

If you say so

The Rat literally said that. I quoted him saying exactly that. Hence my response. I despair.

If you say so

ben foakes has a substantially better test average with the bat than jos buttler does.

stick it to em

not a great argument, nobody cares what he says

Jos has had a great test but he was rightly questioned prior to this series. Let’s not forget he’s played nearly 50 tests and the majority of which he’s not been anywhere near its best. It’s no wonder people were calling him out.

Let’s hope he keeps up this excellent form long into the future.

Fully agree with this like, I was questioning his place in the side.

Let's hope this is watershed moment and he can kick on from it, and repay the faith of the selectors.
