Joe Rooooooooooooot

Poor captain and for me is a distant 4th when ranked alongside Smith, Kohli and Williamson.

So the useless prick can't bat, can't captain and now can't f***ing catch.

He's having a nightmare ashes imo

 

[sunderpitt]

I bet he wishes he was anywhere else but on a test ground playing cricket...

 

[Hongkongphooey]

That dropped catch sums up his ashes series so far, absolute shite

 

[dangermows]

Imagine thinking he's a shite batsman LOL

Good player, needs a break though

Shouldn't be captain and should be at number 4.

In addition to captaincy, ODI has ruined his test game. Should focus on test cricket, plenty of batsmen that could take his place in the ODI side. Hales for example, once he's done his time.

He's arguably our greatest ODI player, plenty could replace him?

I don't think anyone has said that. He's just woefully out of nick.

Too much pressure on as a captain for me it’s dropped his average I think this will be his last series as a captain and I think you will see a dramatic change when he just concentrates on his game.

Read the thread. He's shite at everything. And a prick too apparently LOL.

Of course we will. Many batsmen fail when they become captain he's simply not tactically astute enough to be a captain.

Nobody:
Absolutely nobody at all:

Despite Joe Root being pivotal to our white ball success in recent years.

If he wants to be test captain then he has to give up the format and play county cricket or Sheffield shield cricket till he learns to bat again.

 

[TravellingMackem]

I don't see why people were so desperate for him to bat 3 when it clearly effects him so badly. Also I don't see how someone so mentally fragile to be so effected by one position can captain his country. Needs to go back to batting and give the responsibility to someone else

He's not scored 150 and won us the game yet man.

More likely to be another failed conversion of a 50 to century.

Which means he's absolutely shite....

I think you should check his recent coversion rate before this series.

Wait are we agreeing I thought you were laughing at Rey.

It's 24 percent since the start of 2016. Which in comparison to other top run scorers is awful
