Good conditions on Day 1 for a bowl, think that's the right team too.

No Ashwin is bloody mad

Thought they would include Ashwin it may well turn. Good Woakes is in our batting looks stronger.
I think England will want to see a contribution from Pope, he’s a very talented lad but must of been a tight call with Lawrence.

Sure Curran will come again, but the team looks so much stronger in English conditions with Woakes in there.

Seems they had already made that decision? Lawrence was in Cardiff with Essex, as pointed out to me earlier in thread. Finished yesterday, but not scheduled to do do until today.

Yes probably. Hard call because England are backing potential, Pope has masses of talent, there’s Crawley and Lawrence I’m not sure Sibley will be back anytime soon thou.

I think they are wanting one of the youngsters to nail a spot down. Pope and Crawley look the best to me but it’s runs that count.

Shocking drop. Burns should have taken that.

Agreed, no idea what he is thinking not going for that.

One down side of Bairstow keeping is he is a big loss in a cordon that has been poor for a prolonged period

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

Woakes has bowled superbly today. Broad is very good but if you had to pick one it’s Anderson. He is still doing it at 38.

He’s just that good he’s in class of his own

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.
