It will be interesting to see how Robinson gets on with a Kookaburra, as he can certainly make the Dukes ball talk. I was worried about England’s bowling post Anderson and Broad, but I think we will be ok. Just a shame he’s 28 in December.
Went really well with a kook on a lion tour in Oz.

Bit of a resemblance to josh hazlewood too who always gets wickets. Tall and accurate.

He played with Hazelwood at club level in Australia. He actually presented Robinson with his debut cap for the club.

How do Broad and Jimmy both fit into an England side now?

Is Broad going to get back into the test set up? I'm not so sure we will be seeing him in the winter and the likes of Robinson offer a similar threat.

By the way, what has Ashwin (number 2 ranked bowler in the world) done to upset Virat so much? I mean he 100% should be playing in this game.

Convinced he would play after missing the first 3 games and it usually turns at the Oval.
Kholi wants 4 seamers so I get that, but we have a few left handers Ashwin could take the ball away from, Jadeja will bring it in.

Bit of a mystery.

Jadeja is in mainly for his batting. If pitch offers any assistance to spinners, Jadeja more than capable to exploit it as well. While Ashwin is a decent bat, most of his runs have been on flat decks, so don't really expect Ashwin to bat in conditions when most of top order is failing. India got terribly outplayed with two spinners on green deck in WTC, so can imagine why they don't want to go in with 2 spinners. So even though it looks terrible when Ashwin is missing, given lack of runs from all batsmen and the seaming conditions, difficult to get him in.
