    Roy has to play the next 2 games.

    Vince not up to it and confidence shot.

    Shame we didn’t have David Willey to swing it around this morning. Balls I meant. I’ll leave it there.

    Got to beat India and New Zealand now.

    Release the handbrake and bat first. We have a weakness that is scoreboard pressure.

    O
    Depends on other games. We will probably only need one win.

    England have to adapt to different conditions and not just sticking to the same game plan no matter what. The Sri-Lanka game was a massive loss. Mentally they look shot, and don't get me started on Moeen.

    Very true. However this counts for nothing if we fail to make the semis.

    Agreed regarding Moeen and he will probably be the one of the first names on the team sheet come the start of the ashes...

    If Roy is not fit I would promote Josh Butler to open. Australia loooked good in all departments today potent bowling attack.. Suprised Tom Curran not in squad plenty of heart and a keen competitor but we lack quality in bowling few options outside the current squad.

    Very disappointing. Did anyone else notice some of the Aussie batsmen.? After asking the Umpire
    to check their guard, they deliberately scuffed the wicket in front of the crease with their feet, which just
    might have given their bowlers an advantage when we batted.

    We don't do the basics. Stoke's plays down the ground proper old school no false strokes but scores runs. Root the same. After that everyone else is a walking wicket. Not stoic enough. You can't bang 300 every game you need to adapt to conditions and play percentages. Get partnerships going.

    I agree we play better batting first and it's scoreboard pressure that's done us last two games as it was against Pakistan too.

    As everyone keeps saying we can bat upto 8 so let's play to our strengths play the ball that's there to be played and the bowlers do there job

    I’ve provided evidence for my assertion about the cricket team, whereas you? Seem to have provided insults.

    That's true. The form since the World Cup will mean nothing if they continue to mess up where it matters most. They are struggling with expectation of home advantage.

    Which is pathetic seeing as the last two winners were hosts...
