Good job we picked him for his batting

 

[Steak Pie]

Got this on in the background, what was the original decision?

Out

 

[The Rat]

hopefully the last we see of him this summer

not good enough at either discipline

 

[Hulkenburger]

Curran ffs. Needs dropping.

 

[dixonsafc]

I understand the decision to pick Sam Curran, but he's fell short with bat and ball.

 

[Steak Pie]

Two golden ducks in the innings.

he doesnt play anywhere near enough red ball cricket to imrpove his game

he isn't a test cricketer as it stands

Good knock from ali, need Robinson to stick with root here

 

[The Rat]

had a real chance of a 100 lead or someit, lucky to get out now

Your mind can't help but go back to the Bairstow dismissal, should be in the team though

In the all rounder pecking order, he's 3rd choice at best. We'd be better off picking another out and out bowler if we have Ali in the side as a spinner.

Overton should have played here, he isnt the most exciting cricketer but he would have been at their batsman every ball

despite their reputations, their middle order is flaky as fuck. that type of bowler will be ideal.

Ive criticised root on here in the past for getting 50 and out

But hes been outstanding last 18 month

We would be shambolic without him and anderson

Been outstanding his whole career for England. Our best ever.

Imagining the conspiracy theories if that was Indian umpires turning down 3 consecutive umpire calls lbws against Indian batsmen

Should still be going to the T20 world cup for me

Let's be fair the umpiring (in particular the 3rd umpire) in India was awful not even club standard at times

totally agree on the T20, I just dont get that, every other side in the world would pick him

Its Morgan overthinking again, which he has done a lot since the world cup

 

[dixonsafc]

that's unlucky as fuck
