I think its such a shame Finn isnt half way through a world class career. The coaches have realy let him down. Graeme Smith hasnt helped. I think he made would have made a big difference in the Ashes.

He was selected on the tour so England may or may not of played him if he was fit. He must be ahead of the likes of Curran who is talented but just a medium pacer .

It's a big season for Finn this year, he needs to get back in contention.

And the coaches in the first part of his career yes totally agree, but I know for sure he has recently worked with Richard Johnson and a bit with Fraser himself and it's these two ex players,one coach one good test  bowler, that have got him back on track.

Finn actually owes quite a lot to Johnson....

But in the first place yes, England took a 90 mph bowler, changed his approach and made him a medium pacer.

Another selfish average boosting not out for Woakes!

Woakes ODI batting  ave  boosted by  17 not out outs from 50 innings
You do realise the idea is not to get out in ODI cricket?
Michael Bevan must have been bobbins by your rationale.

Tbf the idea is runs and not care about your wicket overly in white ball format.

Absolutely brilliant from Buttler and Woakes, from a difficult match situation and against Australias 1st choice bowlers. No wonder the likes of Roy and Hales have the confidence to go hard with the strength England have down the order.

This total isn't out of Australias reach by any means but is significantly better than the 230-240 Turncoat Nicholas was predicting on commentary

Tbf the idea is runs and not care about your wicket overly in white ball format.

You wont score many runs in the pavillion

I think I'm right years back England had shared keeping duties for a while. I can't help thinking Butler is that good maybe that could of been done in test and one day cricket because there been no one who can't think Bairstow has not  been good enough on batting alone for the last 2-3 years

Just watching Butler bat it beggars belief we could not of done more for red ball cricket. It's not as if we have such a good keeper the gulf in the two players is that big.

I dunno, seems a shame to me...

You e seen buttler bat when the ball isnt gun barrel straight or a road right ? If so, that’s why he’s not a test cricketer.

Buttler's an utter freak, sadly it's hard to see him getting into the test team now though as he just doesn't play red ball cricket, how will he improve those parts of his game.

Typical BT, lots of replays of Woakes bowling a really good cutter to get Warner and instead of any attempt at analysis we get Michael Clarke telling us how much of a great captain Smith is because he's decided to bat 4 this game...

Watch out for Smith getting in a ball tampering row next after seemingly applying lip balm/sun cream to the ball...
(Note it made 0 difference thanks to Woakes' not out 50)

Plunkett going off is not ideal, Root's gonna have to bowl a few. Does Roy still send the medium pace down for Surrey?

edit: hahaha @ Smith, funny how the Australians aren't broadcasting that one!

Probably get shot down for this

Hales is a total goon

Really like rashid, tries his heart out

And Morgan is a superstar captain, the buzz he generates around the team

England's best ODI bowler to take no further part in the match hamstring injury.
