Unless I’m missing someone haven’t a clue who bats at 3. Surely not Lawrence or Pope

Well at least we might finally get Stokes Foakes Woakes batting line up.

Stokes could be playing at 3 seeing as Malan isn’t there

At least we've solved our No. 3 batter problem. By not bothering to have one.

I mean Woakes shouldn't play again away from home. So was me trying to find some actual positive from that squad.
Massive tail unless Woakes or Overton play with no recognised number 3 either.
Maybes Lawrence is the one their shoehorning up the order. Wonder if making Root go back to 3.

Even putting Crawley at 3 and giving another new opener a try alongside Lees would’ve made more sense

Dobell saying Root will bat 3. Not sure it’s the right move just to accommodate Lawrence or Pope.

I actually think the squad is quite sad.
It reflects the lack of talent we have in the country at the moment

That would be mental given we've relied on Root's runs at 4 for however long now and he's statistically weaker coming in at 3. Root at 4 should be the only spot that's non negotiable

Did they take drugs before selecting?
Lees is the only improvement on Australia. The bowling is weaker.
