Ok...won the toss...batting first. Huge for Crawley and Pope imo. Need big innings from both....weather hot and dry,pitch very fast outfield....first 10 overs will be tricky....Bumrah back....lets go boys!

Crawley certainly for me. Feels like yesterday a bit.....crucial first hour for us. See off the new ball,Root into a big score,hopefully Stokes is fit to make a big contribution too.
it's looking like we'll see Jofra sooner rather than later!
Only when they can't knock over the tail end of the side like they want
we get to 400 we will have these squealing Indians
I'm slightly concerned at how Archer can last in this match. Its fine playing in a county game but this is a totally different level and one he hasn't played for 4 years. Its also a worry whether Stokes is fit enough to bowl after last night
I have been watching some stuff of Archer on youtube, I didnt realise he was so fast, so very smooth, hopefully he rips the guts out of them early on
Bowls consistently around the late 80s to 90+ mph. Just hoping he doesn't break down again. He's abit like Mark Wood - great bowler just not fit all the time
