Its fair point aye


Without waffling on, not to say you don'y have a point about pressure, but most of our top order got like standard dismissals, wouldn't say it was pressure, Bairstow a very harsh LBW 1st ball, Root nicked off leg side, Morgan out to a freak catch, Buttler yorker, Stokes stayed in

It was our tail that completed flopped, they should have been able to get 60 between theM


So I wouldn't say out star batsman felt the pressure, but the tail did, which was started by Ali

Think that gets lost when people look at it

I know what you're saying mate, but at the end of the day we lost to an extremely ordinary side.

I don’t think it is really, truth is, one win from the remaining 3 games will probably be enough.

I also think we’ll fare better against the better teams, do believe complacency set in today (and against Pakistan), no excuses to be any less than 100% against the big 3.

Anyone changed their opinion on Alex Hales?

If Roy isn't fit then he should be playing. Any idea when Roy is available again

Ducks and golden ducks happen sometimes but getting vaguely started and tarting yourself out for 14 is awful.

I believe that is called a Joe Root special, which he repeated again today. He’s so frustrating how he struggles to kick on with scores. This team blows hot and cold though, can see by how rarely we win series 5-0, usually it’s 4-1 or 3-2. You can’t win every game playing this style of cricket and it isn’t conducive to knockout tournaments
 
Sri Lanka’s record against the 10 teams in the tournament since the Champions Trophy before yesterday.

Won 7 Lost 31.
