Is 240 about par here today?

Seems about right.
Top batting from Morgan and Co.

Always thought Morgan was too high at 4. Much better as our finisher, so Malan at 4 makes more sense. Malan doesn't deserve any criticism for today, as had no game practice and under too much pressure to produce in a one off game.

Just remember that Denly was being picked because the world t20 is in India and they want the extra spin option

World t20 is in Australia? In October November isn't it?

Yup, Denly’s being picked to try and justify that odd decision to give him a white ball contraxt

Yes slightly hard to fathom that, a significant contribution to the test team and not much with the one day side so to the layman it just looks like the contracts are the wrong way round.

For T20, Malan maybe better than Denly from Today's team, he has more power and it's really a hitters game in 20 overs

No Joe Root and I think that's it for him, stick to tests and the 50 format where he is a big player

Have to agree on Root. Yes, he does a phenomenal job in ODIs where you can run hard and rotate the strike well and be a crucial player but he doesn't hit big as well or as easily as the likes of Morgan, Malan, etc who are his competition to bat at 4.

SA have done well in the t20s given it’s their worst side ever.
Add AB, Tahir, rabada and faf back into this side and it becomes a WC contender.

Probably missing a Morris as an allrounder

I don’t think Root gets in the T20 squad anymore. Assuming the World Cup squad maximum is 15, I think I would go for this starting XI and back-up. If Banton has another good domestic T20 I would happy to see him take Malan’s place, and I’d probably move Bairstow to 3 and open with Roy & Banton. It will be interesting to see if Hales gets another chance.

Roy
Bairstow
Malan
Morgan
Buttler
Stokes
Ali
T.Curran
Jordan
Rashid
Archer

Billings / Hales
S.Curran
Wood
Banton

Morgan seems to have just shut the door on Hales completely, he just brings up this 'trust' issue every time; whilst we are more than lucky to have as many openers as we do it'd be foolish not to work it all out. Yes, he's a moron, but the welfare from the ECB just seems nonexistent...

$10 says Faf signs a Kolpak deal within 12 months.
You'd be wasting it, he'll obviously aim to play the t20wc and by the time that's done Kolpak will be done and dusted.
