Unless they suddenly come good in the last half of the IPL, the English contingent has been pretty terrible really! Woakes, Archer the only decent performers?

Buttler played well yesterday to be fair but in general the English players have been quite disappointing yeah

Roy has a 90 Hales a 40 plus in his one knock
Archer has bowled well Woakes left out  by RCB   Kholi stated after one loss  his death bowlers were going for to many runs.
Buttler the fourth fastest 50 so far  and  the fastest for his side Stokes  could win  the catch of the series .
Can't think of much else.

We are too quick to judge. It's understandable why Stokes is not replicating last seasons performances. But Archer has been superb. Roy played an amazing innings. Hales got 45 on a difficult surface. And Buttler came to the party last night. Even Plunkett had a great debut, 3 for 17.

Don't mention PLUNKETT :@

Also, Stokes has been the most disappointing IMO haha if taking a good catch is his tournament highlight ffs

The stats kind of show what I'm saying.
Most Runs: No Englishman in top 20.
Buttler (24), Stokes (30), Roy (41), Billings (45),

Most Wickets is a bit better though
Woakes (14), Archer (17), Plunkett (48)

How is Manish Pandey a flop? He has played sensibly in a few innings and got some crucial runs.

£1.2m was what was paid for him.
158 runs in 8 games - think I’d want a lot more for that amount. No man of the match performances

Gill is player to watch out for. In U19's he looked better and composed than Shaw. Shaw was lacking in footwork against seaming ball whereas Gill looked at ease.

These Indian fans are going to see some talent in the next few years Pant, Shaw, Iyer, Gill, Mavi and Nagarkoti are the new golden generation of Indian cricket
