2 quick wickets. Bloody hell did we need that. If we can limited them to no more than 320 then its a good shout. Going to be difficult though. Poor decision to bowl first. Just put us under pressure.
Comfortable win in the end then. How long is Roy going to get? Any way can shuffle the batting to get Bairstow in the team? In form batsman in world cricket and we can't find a slot for him!
Been out of form lately though he's very hit or miss. He's either out for 5 or out for 90. No in between
I think its a deliberate england tactic that openers come out ultra agressive especially if batting first. 20/30 is good enough type of thing.
Move Root to open? He pretty much opens anyway as inevitable one of Hales or Roy is out in first 5 overs. Then just shuffle rest up, Morgan at 4, Bairstow 5, Butler 6, Stokes 7, Moeen 8..
phenomenal closing 4 overs from England today then a lousy last 1. set just about a par score for the 50 overs as a result. 310..... buttler on 61 at end standing watching England **** it on other end when he could have clubbed another 20.
