Leaving Broad and Anderson out of the tour just hit home when Craig Overton took the new ball.

Along with leaving Broad and Anderson at home, the decision to put Mahmood  in the twelve then leave him out for Woakes and Overton is a little baffling. We know what they can do, why not see what Mahmood is about at this level?

One of Woakes or Overton made sense for their batting, no Mahmood is bizarre though.

Strauss spoke about ‘red ball reset’ why on earth did England not give Mahmood, Fisher and Parkinson a chance?
Woakes is atrocious away from home.
Overton average at best
Leach very mediocre.

Leach has done pretty reasonably, would do a whole lot better if he consistently had proper fields set for him by Root.

Woakes and Overton as uninspiring as you could imagine with the second new ball. Overton bowling mid 120s…
Give Wood the new ball

A bit of dodgy umpiring I am hearing?

At least we're learning that Overton isn't an opening bowler at this level for certain. Woakes has improved as the innings has gone on. Robinson looks a big miss on this wicket.

I like Woakes all round package but he’s in to bolster the batting in this team I think.

Would like to have seen Mahmood just to see what he has.

I still think yeah we have to find new bowlers but if there is any movement or swing at all we need Anderson…I don’t think his age matters or whether he’s difficult to manage- which there is no proof of just guesswork

I am also at a loss to understand why Mahmood isn't playing here.

I don't agree with leaving Broad and Anderson out, but if you are going to look to the future, it needs to be an opportunity for new faces like Parkinson and Mahmood to have a go, not those like Overton, Woakes and Leach who have had a chance not taken it
