I know why we are over there but my over riding feeling whilst I have been watching the 2 ODI's is that it would have been so much better/what would happen if we were playing a proper WI side containing the below -

Gayle
Both Bravo's
Russell
Pollard
Narine
Simmons
Rampaul
Benn

Well as call the midwife is on the telly(we only have one television in the place ) I'm listening on BBC.

They have Woakes as man of the match.

If sky coverage is a few seconds behind Woakes has just laced one thru cover for four.

It was a gorgeous cover drive, pure class.

I'm gonna go with the theme I have gone with all along Chris Woakes is very important player for England and bar the odd dynamic innings and bowling he is as good as Stokes..

They compliment each other one is consistent the other a match winner any given day.

And I do not care who we are playing he come in and played well

his ability has always beenthere he has moved his game a notch or two in the last 18 months , even the commentators are seeing it big time he also England quickest bowler....

Absolutely livid with woakes here! Can't believe he's scored so many and not let foot get to three figures! Must be dropped immediately!!

I agree 100%.

In fact, by scoring all these runs he's denied Root a century which would have given the new test captain a massive boost in confidence. Woakes needs to be dropped for this performance.

It's not hard to score runs against a poor bowling attack losing Gabriel When they did was a game changer

Poor from the sub-standard Woakes. Sacked in the morning

he should walk off and just not bother like the England middle order but I'm not going to rise.

Looking at the scorecard, Sam Billings and Jos Butler would disagree...

Exactly different game losing Gabriel
Also unless there's a vast improvement can't see this windes side getting a top 8 world cup qualification.

Didn't Bishoo get Butler out, after Gabriel had left with his injury 🤔

Looking at the middle order who failed to get runs...

Morgan - lbw - b Nurse - 7 (14)
Stokes - c Hope - b Bishoo - 1 (5)
Butler - c Hope - b Bishoo - 0 (7)
Moeen - b Nurse - 3 (5)

Different game after Gabriel was injured...

Your comments against Woakes make you look like a clown. He's out bowled and out batted Stokes but don't hear you calling for him to be dropped.
