wood a knee jerk reaction. Just throw in a fast bowler as that's what the WIndies have.
don't worry things will dramatically improve when CC starts running alongside the 100 ball tournament ............................................. money-grabbing idiotsCounty games were finishing on a regular basis inside 2 days, total under 200 runs in any inns.
Worrying times for red ball fans.
Red ball games played start/end of season when conditions are at their toughest!
I like Nasser Hussain's observation that the So-called next in line batsmen are moving themselves down the order in CC cricket because it is easier.eg. Denley, Roy, Vince
It won’t be Clarke in next as he has been stood down by the lions for some iffy behaviour
Oh yeah that case which has gone to a retrial, he’s not a party in the trial but they left him out whilst it’s being resolved.
From my viewing of the lions this winter no real standouts with th bat, think Duckett and Billings have been the ‘better’ of the bunch
Neither of them are likely to pull up any trees in test cricket also another two keepers is their aim to have six keeper batsman and then a few bowlers
May not be party to the trial but hasn't done himself any favours. Pretty ordinary behaviour at best.Oh yeah that case which has gone to a retrial, he’s not a party in the trial but they left him out whilst it’s being resolved.
3rd Test- Foakes has been dropped! Can you believe it!
Disgraceful decision, Jennings back in Denly to 3.
Foakes dropped to keep in the ‘boys’!
I would have committed the ultimate sin and dropped Buttler.
Get him back on the staff!!
All fit, my ‘guaranteed’ selections for the first Ashes test would be-
1. Burns
2.
3.
4.Root
5.Stokes
6. Bairstow
7. Foakes (k)
8. Ali
9.
10. Broad
11. Anderson
Woakes at 9 and the calls are getting louder to bring back Ian Bell I personally think his time has gone
Woakes has got to sort his injury problems out and get fit for the start of the season and World Cup.
Agree on Bell, would be interesting if he did hit the ground running in div 1.... but they’d have to bat him for England at 3
If they don’t perform tomorrow something has to give and players like Ali put under pressure.
Ha. I wrote same thing but obviously didn't push post button when news came out.see above.3rd Test- Foakes has been dropped! Can you believe it!

So Jennings back in and a fit Foakes dropped.
Laughable.
Root not brave enough to drop his mates.
Ha. I wrote same thing but obviously didn't push post button when news came out.see above.
Time for a rethink of Root's captaincy if he isn't strong enough to rock the boat.
This current set-up likes mistreating young players after a couple of games.
Picking on a young lower order player when fault lies with top order. Jennings shouldn't be on this tour let alone back in side
Agreed.Jennings race was run at Test level before this test so it’s ridiculous and a waste to give him this Test perfect opportunity to have given Foakes a go at 3
