Watson struggled to get his pad in the way for once! The irony.

I'm not sure what Billings brings to the team. Unless he's good enough to bat in the top 5 he shouldn't be playing. Buttler and Stokes have to be ahead of him in the order, so unless he keeps then he shouldn't be in. Vince would have been a better pick, or another bowler.

I'm no fan of T20, but Ali wasn't 'hitting through the line' at all. He was playing proper cricket shots all round the wicket.

Agree that playing Billings as a specialist batsman is a bit strange.

Ok enough of this utter dribble I've just deleted 3 pages of total rubbish.... Yes it was mainly from one member but there were a few who added fuel to the fire... Let's get back to talking cricket!!!!

I'm just watching them now, it's ridiculous! Almost half heartwood too I noticed.

Matthew Wade seemed to be using a Shrey version of the stemguard, can't find any pictures though. Looked like a velcro on job rather than clips.

In all seriousness, why is 2020 billed as so exciting? I seriously don't get it. Just smacking through the line all the time isn't fun after the first 2 or 3. I mean, we know moeen can't play decent bowling on decent wickets yet and just biff on 2020 wickets.. How is that good for the game or even exciting ? All I think is 'great, you can hit through the line but can't play Johnson/steyn in tests'

I just don't get why some people (vocal minority) get all 'Yey Yey' about both the format, and the 2020 merchants

I guess its much more thrilling... A find test matches quite boring to be honest. T20s finish within 3 hours, its much more fun to watch, although all they do is slogg
