Swanny didn't look in too bad form over in the states. still better than the filth rashid and Ali have been serving up!

saw him bowl in the help for heroes t20 at the Oval and he bowled a mean spell there as well

Replace Ali and Rashid with saqi and swann

Don't worry lads, we'll win today.

[rickjames]

We won the toss again?! What is this?!

[Mr_Orange]

Batting first and unchanged. Surprised Woakes stays in, long time without a wicket.

[WalkingWicket37]

So, will England score more or less in their 50 overs than Davey Warner managed on the first day of a test match...

[rickjames]

Well, this is better than Wednesday

I hope Hales actually tries to thump a few, that's what he can do and why he is in the team.There's no difference prodding to the slips or trying to hit it out of the ground, you're still out-might as well have a go..

that's the new era right?

[rickjames]

Never change, Jase

I think a Roy and Morgan bats are kippax saw morgan had the stamp on his earlier in the week they certainly sound very nice indeed

[rickjames]

Yasir, meet Jason

[rickjames]

Great start so far from the lads

[northernboy1987]

And that right there is my only slight gripe with Roy, looks great plays really well but can't seem to convert starts into big scores, I'm sure he'll get it right sooner rather than later but it is a bit frustrating!

[rickjames]

Get in Alex. Patient knock and got his rewards...

[FattusCattus]

Good work Mr Hales - I hope this is the start of something beautiful!!!
