Is it just me or does that GN Scoop sound like a plank?

Horrible plonk sound!

Anyone else's sound a second behind the action?

Hasn't he already proven that in most of his home games for the last god knows how long?

Averages four and half wickets per match.

That wasn't exactly what I was saying. I was saying competent batsmen should be able to handle responsibility of being moved up one place in the middle-order.

A factor in Woakes doing well for England with the bat is probably that he hasn't had the pressure on him to do so. He is picked predominantly as a bowler. Is he really a better batsman than Vince or Hales? I don't think so.

Yep must be nice to  come into bat with 300 plus runs on the board.

On a flatty, against test opposition.

Don't get me wrong - I'm a huge TRJ fan, and I want him to get the wickets on a flatty to prove he's the real deal, 'cos I want him to cement the slot for England.

after all, look at the potentials he has snapping at his heels - Woakes, Ball, Plunkett, Wood, Currant, Overton.  His is the hardest spot to nail at the moment!

I only wish we had the same list of hopeful opening bats and spinners!

By bringing TRJ back  for the third test  is this as an admission by the selectors that they were wrong to leave him out in the second test for Woakes

The first cricket box was used in 1874.  The first cricket helmet was introduced in 1974. So, it took 100 years for men to twig that their brains were also worth protecting.

Stokes just makes things happen

Sometimes good sometimes bad but rarely dull when he is the mix
