Absolute seed from Anderson. So, so good.

Another great match. Not a single ball bowled by Stokes all game is a concern.

Was it? He wasn't really needed and had full trust in his bowlers stepping up; can't have him just be a battering ram every game

England were superb. Got Pakistan under pressure and they choked. Never stopped believing

Suggests to me he isn’t fully fit, which affects the balance of the side.

Not sure many of them are fully fit, talk is that most of them are still getting over the virus they had. Definitely a stronger side with Stokes able to bowl but they managed pretty well without.

Would love to see Rehan Ahmed come in for the next match now the series is decided, to debut in a side with their tails up. Candidates to drop out are Stokes or Wood if not fully fit. Rest up for the big year ahead. Otherwise a straight swap with Jacks.

Not sure about dropping Stokes, I'd want him to get as much extra captaincy experience as possible unless he really cannot play.

If they wanted to go a bit experimental and have a look at a few other players with the series sewn up, could go something like: Ahmed for Leach, JOverton for Wood and Foakes for Jacks. Improves the batting and Root can pick up the part time spin overs easily.

Injuries permitting I think Foakes comes in for Jack and that probably it. This side is still too new to go wild with changes.

He seems to be doing alright with the captaincy to me!

Id much rather he had a rest if hes carrying an injury. Theres a lot of cricket ahead and England are a much better side moving forward with Stokes as a fit bowling option.

Would like to see Ahmed come in for Jacks in the final test. With a tour to India on the horizon, we need to develop a further spin option as Leech is very limited at this level and will need support from a front line spinner

They're doing it, Rehan Ahmed comes in for Jacks. Throwing an inexperienced 18yo leggie in feels like a terrible idea to me... but with Stokes working his miracles he'll probably get a 5fer and a ton!

Foakes in for Jimmy too, guessing that means Stokes is fit to bowl or they think it'll be a turner.

I have to say I don't know much about Rehan, I really hope he goes well, but this seems an odd selection.
Am glad that Foakes is back too.

The pressure will be on Robinson and Leach to bowl a lot of overs.
