I'd say so. And De Kock has fallen!

Moneen   Ali Englands  probably Englands best number eight ever.

Has he realised he is better than Dawson and therefore is now number 1 spinner ?
 :)

Or do they tell him he is number 2 still but no one is better than him so they don't pick another spinner?

However it works we don't care
What a match for Mo

Can't wait for the Ashes. Moeen will struggle, everybody will pile on and say rubbish like "What do you expect from a bits and pieces player in Australia? He's no Graeme Swann".

Then of course, they'll all crawl back under their rocks when someone points out that Swann averaged 52 over 8 tests in Australia before retiring halfway through a series to ensure his test average stayed below 30.

Has he realised he is better than Dawson and therefore is now number 1 spinner ?

None of it ever made a difference to Moeen, the whole number two spinner nonsense was just Bayliss trying to be clever and justify his salary.

250 runs and 25 wickets in a series has happened nine times in test history.

Moeen is the only one to do it in a 4 test series. :*)

Brilliant stuff from Mo and thrilling batting.

We still need to sort the batting out but he can play with freedom at number 8 and it suits him.

Not sure what we will do now batting wise but that's a good win against a good side.

Well played England and well played mo. Deserved man of the series.

Interesting that game was sorobably set up in the 1st innings by our number 7, who wants to bat higher. And the. Driven home by our number 8 in innings to, who wants to bat higher........


Anyway, is jennings done?
Is malan good enough?
Westley being the better of the 3 got himself a longer stay?
Will ballance return?
Does hameeds 71 not out from 214 balls mean he's back in form?
Does Hales 218 in division 2 matter at all?
 Batting needs answers

Does woakes come back in for trj? Or do we use the 4 to rotate and rest plays to keep them fresh?

Our bowling looks better. Settled to me, despite wus having apparently 8 batsman.

I feel Hashim Amla's career is coming to an end. I suspect this is the last year we'll watch him play. Faf is the only man standing from the Smith era.
