I’ve actually been disappointed in his batting in international cricket, he’s not a total rabbit. But has batted like one

I reckon he looks nervous with the bat. Clearly better than his performances, but just thinks he shits himself a bit

Yes definitely. Not shown his IPL batting skills at all for England.
Rehan too so far, put that down to youth and plenty of time to do better.
David Willey also should have a been a top 6 bat. A massive disappointment.
Rehan needs to become an allrounder
Curran at 6 is still interesting, he needs to play red ball for when stokes retires

Would have put mousley ahead of him
Yeah probably. I actually want him to bat high tho as he has talent, but needs to kick on and make big runs

Both are capable

Rashid is the top run scorer in our squad. Crazy!
You couldn’t make it up
England may yet win this, but some observations
- clashing with a test series is mad
- pick on talent and potential yeah, but surely Hain plays?
- the balance of this side is f***ing absurd

It is absolutely ridiculous and has been for the last few England white ball games that Jamie Overton playing as a specialist batsman.
Said it in the summer no logic to it at all.
Should be playing another specialist batsman higher up the order

It’s fine in t20 as he strikes so high. Makes no sense in this

There’s far too much cricket played these days like

Are England squads now picked on recommendations from the coaches in private / public schools?
Ditto football

Yeah not sure I even agree with it in T20 as surely there is better specialist batsman in that as well who could strike equally as high or just short and still more consistent
But in 50 over would go as far as saying one of the worst decisions they have made.
Number 8 specialist batsman in 50 over cricket.
Nothing against the lad but it’s ridiculous
He strikes at 160 in t20s. He’s a boundary hitter.

Yeah he is, but think he comes off one in ten and don’t think he good enough for international cricket.
That’s t20
