I have to say I was bullish before this series pope would have no bother in continuing on from the winter. As he looked so natural and at home at this level
I think had we not had covid he'd have defs looked better, just lack of match practice taken him a few goes to get it right.
I don't care about tempting fate but I can see him getting another 2 tons this summer on top of this one he will get tomorrow morning.

Got a lot of stick on here as “head boy” when he was in his ECB role but always liked him as a player and he’s getting better as a commentatorI like Strauss. He was starting to be more relaxed in the comms box previously, I would not mind him coming back in there full time
plus he is voicing my england bat once mantra
always liked him personally.

Others more deserving of a chance, Sam Hain for instance, tom banton, Alex hales....
Hales - yeah but won’t happen
Hain - great record, but I think they think he scores too slowly
Banton - he’s actually done fuck all so far really

And yet they're all buggered because of who is in possession of positions.
Banton and Hales aren't moving Roy and Bairstow.
Hain at moving Root.
Morgan is the next real chance for someone to get in side otherwise we're shoehorning in someone at 5/6 who doesn't play there. As we've already done with Banton

Can’t believe the selectors didn’t know Buttler is a natural number 6.
Lovely innings today, more of the same please. Pope looks simply a class act.

Cracking gutsy knock under pressure. Well done Jos.
I’m looking forward to the abuse when Buttler gets a ton
Nee abuse needed. His position deserves to be under consideration. Credit to him performing well under tricky circumstances.
