They only appealed for one run out though it's not like lbw and finding it was caught

Also Tom Curran has to be int he world cup squad after today and Ireland!!

Time to start analysing the tape until we find the boundary rider appealing from behind the grassy knoll.

It's so far ahead of the curve it's silly. England simply have to win the World Cup right?

Does anyone else think Root is a bit of a weak link? Seems to be struggling a bit for tempo.

No. Why are we always looking for someone to drop? “Stokes scored some runs, dam, better find someone else to say we should drop”



Wind back ten years and the root of today would be the top odi player of any side. But you know we are England fans. Got to moan at someone








We just had a poor game with the bat, lost wicket in quick succession, out top batsmen got a duck, 2 of our best  batsman rested and still chased down 341!!

Just sit back and enjoy.

So you’re a better batter than Imam, and a better bowler than M Abbas, who you called a second division trundler. A true Gary Sobers. A shame the IPL has been ignoring you for so long.
Remind me what Abbas did when he went to South Africa...oh yes he was slapped around with his 70mph lollipop bowling.

Not hard to be better than any Pakistani player tbh, they lack heart

Root's averaging 50 after 100+ matches, his place can never be in doubt. But whom ever advised him to work on his power hitting should be sacked.

No coach has asked Root to work on that, he is doing it totally himself. His ideal as he has said in interview-perhaps you are saying he should sack himself?

Despite the popular view on this forum, coaches are not responsible for all things bad in the modern game.

Woakes looks like he's getting that little bit of extra snap back in his action, good timing pre-wc!
