    Poor captaincy maybe contributing- winning the toss then putting them in looks like the wrong choice.

    Spend all first innings out in the field in incredibly humid conditions.

    Our bowlers frazzled and so are the batters.

    Tired bodies tired minds.

    It's about time we had one coach, one captain and one side that plays all three formats. If they aren't fit enough physically or mentally, can't travel. They don't play.

    It seems to work for New Zealand, Australia, India and South Africa.

    You don't get Rohit Sharma saying I can't play I've ate too many pies.

    Seems obvious doesn’t it. Not convinced by Buttler at all

    Nobody will convince me we wouldn’t be a better one day team with Stokes captaining it and Baz head coach.

    Buttler and Mott look woeful as the leadership pairing in the 50 over format.

    Not captain material at all.

    Big changes needed. Too loyal to a lot of the old guard in the one day game. Woakes.Wood Buttler Moeen Ali and given his injuries Stokes should stick with just one format of the game.

    Personally I don't think Stokes should be in the team given his injuries/fitness.

    Aged like milk this one…

    Twelfth over, another 332 needed to win, and we have David Willey (average 25, two fifties in 67 games) and Adil Rashid (average 19, 1 50 in 129 games at the crease. With just the fast bowlers to come.

    This is an absolute abomination. Sack Mott, sack Buttler as captain. Now.

    Give the captaincy to Stokes for the rest of the tournament.

    Bowling in those conditions had to go down as one of the worse idecisions in ODI history.

    I can’t argue against that Helen but Buttler isn’t a captain; and Baz McCullum and his approach is made for one day cricket.

    Maybe Stokes should re-retire and we appoint someone else. But it can’t be Buttler moving forward.

    YJB maybe.

    We never win when bowling first, so no idea why buttler keeps thinking it’s a good idea.

    What's betting Butler replaced by Stokes as captain for remainder of tournament and Butler goes home with a stress related illness.

    Think Stokes may have done the same, we like the run chase.
