spot on there.....that is a very accurate description of what an opener thinks when not in form, or faced with bowling too good for him
Now where does that leave Jennings mindset

Jennings clueless with that.
Cook won’t survive too long here either. Can see England 4 down before lunch in these conditions

Can you see Moeen with a swashbuckling double ton please?

Will we make it to 100?

On the plus side, our two best batsmen are finally at the crease.

Problem is Jennings is  cricitise for keep nicking the ball so his mindset is leave  the new ball and one swings in that he should have played

The problem with Jennings is that he's not very good at hitting the ball with his bat.

Well maybe he should think about playing the ball first and leaving it second

I’ve watched majority of this series. Bumrah hasn’t sung it much, if at all. Ishant and shaminyes. Bumrah no.

That ball came back a mile, and out of no where!!

Yes I agree Jennings isn’t good enough for test opening, but I wouldn’t chastise him for that one as much as he’s getting, he and England will know be watching for it.


Random series for England, stokes and buttler looked the most testnliek batsman last year, Ali and Curran this innings........


Anyway. England have battingnproblems. We need a 3.

Then root can bat 4, where he wants.
Bairstow can bat 5, where he wants.
Stokes can bat 6, where he wants.
And buttler can be a keeper batsman in the 7 spot, where they should be.

We need two openers mind.....

How about something like:
Hameed - I know he's out of form, but show faith and invest for the future.
Burns - better late than never
Moeen - if you can get a double hundred at 3 in the Championship you're doing something right
Root - where he wants to bat
YJB - where he should bat
Stokes - where he wants to bat
Buttler (keeper) - let him play as keeper, waste of a spot as a "specialist number 7"

it is sheer stupidity to leave him out. proven class. way better than "youngsters". what is this new obsession with "too old"? in any other profession, Bell could sue them for being ageist.

he is 36. some of the aussies recently have had success recalling older players

I think someone like ....the left hander chris Rodgers did a job for the team until quite recently

^ 20 year old!

This kid deserves to be backed and nurtured.

Who's the other youngster (18?) who back-foot punches like Root? He is pretty good too!

England talent deserves better management and backing.
