Absolutely incredible stuff.

Bairstow joins Root with a ton.

England win at a canter.
Highest run chase for England.

Absolutely incredible.

Couldn't get to watch any of the play this morning, so much for not having any worked booked other things got in the way.....

But hell what a performance, well done lads Root looks totally reborn without the Captaincy and who is this impersonator in Jonny Bairstow's body???? Absolutely Brilliant, shame we have to wait until August to do it all again.......
 
Have you gone to see any county cricket? I’m definitely going to spend a few days watching meaningless games in the sun……seems the epitome of retirement activity to me. Although I have insisted that if I show any interest in going on a cruise, especially a Viking River Cruise, I should be pushed over the side, it would be a mercy killing.
I hear those cruises are full of retired old folks Sb … you’ll love it :emoticon-0102-bigsm
 
I presume England haven't picked Root, Bairstow, Stokes etc in the 20/20 because they've just played in the test?
 
Our bowlers, apart from Jordan, were poor, whilst their opening quicks had it swinging round corners.

I thought some of Buttler's field placings were poor too, particularly for Parkinson.

Soundly beaten.
 
Comprehensively beaten again, just can't handle their bowlers. Sharma has win 14 on the bounce as captain now, India look firm favourites for the World Cup at the moment. Missing Morgans leadership and Bairstow and Stokes batting !
