Root's just a joy to watch. Makes it look so easy. Scoring at more than a run a ball, yet it doesn't feel like he's gone after it, he's just batted

Ballance gets in and out again... surely he can't bat at three for much longer!

I think root should be up to to 3. Put YJB in at 4 and then bring in Samit Patel for ballance. Then at least you have one more bowler in the side and you dont need to play dawson as an extra spinner

Surely , what Dawson offers with the ball can't be much more than what Root could ? Or am i missing something ?

Roots as good as Dawson but Maybe now Joes skipper he  feels he as enough to do and is reluctant to bowl also England have said they want a number one spinner.
