    That is Woakes, Leach and Root in. Definitely, Roy, Anderson, Buttler, Stokes. Another 4. Bairstow, Burns, Denly, Sam Curran. That´s my 11. No room for Broad, and can England leave out Curran, Woakes who are playing better cricket at the moment. Leach is essential particularly as wickets are more responsive to spin at this time of year.

    PS: Apart from the retired Cook, is his opening partner any good at Essex?

    That over from Taylor where Fuller went nuts was the game changer. Great cameo from him.

    The Fuller over off Taylor is what really changed that. About time that we were finally on the right end of a really big over, after some of the ones dished out to us just recently.

    I still say we're a batter short, because the likes of Fuller and Morris aren't consistent enough to contribute like that on a regular basis. But of course when they do, they're valuable.

    Boy we needed that win.

    Really tough call for MOTM.

    Fuller's over of batting was game changing.

    Donald stuck in there when wickets were falling around him.

    Dawson gave Donald a partnership, and ultimately helped us to take the game deep.

    Conceding just 22 runs from 4 overs at Taunton, as Wood did, is nothing short of outstanding. Especially when the no.1 t20 player in the world is at the crease for all 120 balls.

    I'll probably change my mind in a minute, but I think I'm going with Wood.

    Team performance! Also Morris should take credit for bowling a superb last over at the death. 4 runs off the 18th over was superb and ultimately proved crucial.
