    Have to agree with CS if you get a rank half volley, fair enough, but we were trying to hit good balls for 6, still a place for "proper" shots in T20.

    Be reight though, it was an experimental England side up against probably the strongest Indian team in recent years. But if we insist on chasing then Buttler needs to drop a place or two, got to be difficult opening 10 minutes after captaining and keeping. Personally, I'd like to see him give up the gloves and captain in the field, if not, bring in Hales to open with Roy.

    Oh and though experimental, if someone can explain why Matt Parkinson should be anywhere near the squad I'd appreciate it...

    I'd expect Bairstow to open the innings and Buttler to drop down when we have a full strength squad.

    The only problem with that team now is Buttler. Terrible captain, atrocious keeper and his batting is terrible at the moment, can’t bat anywhere but India…

    Poor series from him, but to suggest he is the problem with the team like one poster did is just ridiculous.

    Salts not to be our saviour then! Sooner we'd let India bat first, would have given the crowd a better watch!

    Bizarre how livingstone has made a career for himself based on a slog over cow corner, and very few shots on the off side

    Should have been comfortable after our innings. They're going after Livingstones bowling. 0-36 off 2 overs. 92 now needed off 40 balls. Only 3 down.
