Cook isn’t going to happen but a man can dream.

Lammonby hit 3 tons last summer under pressure & averages over 50, even having to play at “ciderabad” - but you are right it’s way to soon and he’s only 20

Foakes does not get in my team although he’s a super cricketer

Jamie O it’s a surprise for me he’s not been given a go yet
Craig O probably unlucky to have so much competition for bowling slots.

The other option if we do not have traditional openers is let’s go big at the top of the order and get in some biffers - there’s a queue for that role.

As much fun as two biffers would be, I think Silverwood is pretty married to a more traditional game plan. Also compromises the middle order where England have their best two players batting.

Spinners are in the game, I suspect without seeing the dismissals thou it may be slightly mis leading.

Just shows if you can get runs on the board it can knock the stuffing out of teams

Can't believe this is the day I decided not to bother getting up earlier for the commentary...

Shouldn't have been letting a #10 get a 40 odd, hurts us badly. Doable chase, but not going to be easy

To be fair, he didn't bat like a number 10, it was a pretty good innings.

anyone else starting to get annoyed with the over appealing from sri lanka? the keeper appealed for lbw in the first innings which didnt even hit the pad, then looked devastated when it wasnt given out. Dickwella's sledging is good but they possibly need to revisit the lbw rules at some point.
