    Under 3 an over in the Bazball era is unheard of.

    We can’t criticise them for batting cautiously on a slow pitch in order to build a big stand after we gave England some stick for batting Baz ball in last match !
    These two look sound to me

    Add him to Crawley and Stokes and that's half the top order need consideration.

    I'm shocked.

    England players... Getting themselves out with stupid shots and no technique? So unlike them!

    I’d rather Brook got out swinging the bat having scored a breezy 30 or 40 rather than to a failed defensive shot like that.

    I like brook. No1 batter in world. I think root is though. No foot work at all

    I think many are OK on flat pitches. As soon as they face a decent bowler on a pitch that does a bit, you're left hoping Root will get enough runs for everyone.

    I suspect there's a good chance we'll see the end of Key, McCullum and Stokes after the Ashes series.

    Brook is obviously very talented but the best bowlers work him out. Is he better than Jaiswal and Gill ? I don't think so.

    Same failures every test match. Brook might have the stats but doesn't have the temperament for a tight spot. Crawley and Pope come off once a blue moon and Stokes can't drop himself unless it's off his bowling.
