Title: England Vs Lions
Post by: Red Ink Cricket on February 10, 2012, 10:45:42 AM

So looks like a good performance so far. Are you happy with the balance of the side? any changes before the first ODI. Is there room for Buttler and or Briggs?

They seem to be playing well today.  The problem is that when they play Pakistan they will be facing better quality spinners so runs scored off Briggs and Borthwick could be a little bit misleading.  I still worry about the batting.

Yeah pakistan spinners will be more of a test. im worried about bopara and patel. be good to see Buttler and Briggs in but is Briggs much of a bat?

also why would you send in Bopara at 4 when the likes of morgan have struggled on tour. i know its not against the spinners of pakistan  but surely you would send in a batsman whos stuggling to get a bit of confidence under his belt
