    Anything the Banglas can do......

    England just can't cope with spin bowling conditions on the sub-content.

    I've been a fan of Ben Duckett for the last couple of seasons but what on earth is he doing opening the batting with Cook? He should be in at four or five.

    Yet another more than capable county player fails at test level. He whacks one for six and then tickles one down the leg side to the keeper. No need to play those Ben! I'm not writing him off yet but this was not the best place to start your test career.

    Cannot understand why they young Habeeb hasnt got a start as opener. If he isnt facing Bangladesh he wont face India. Put Duckett in at 3 and drop the out of form Ballance.

    I've said it often enough but one more time for luck. Ballance should spend the next year or so playing county cricket and anything else he can get during the winter. He's worse than out of form. His confidence is gone. He needs to go away and come back stronger
