    "Burns beaten for the 837th time in this innings"

    The Analyst chipped in.

    Stokes gone for 50. Still think we will need to be batting near tea to win this one.

    Bairstow already has more runs in this series than in the series against Ireland.

    Bairstow n Ali .. now is the time to justify your selections .. no fancy stuff, just get stuck in and score lots

    Both overnight batsmen out. How many balls do we give Lord Moeen against Lyon? I'll say 'three' and hope he proves me wrong

    super innings from Burns , he must be really cream crackered

    Proper old fashioned test innings. 
    Apart from his technique of course.

    Ali is a walking wicket these days.

    He needs a spell playing regular county cricket to get his mojo back.

    Thanks for your (usual) contribution, Mo.
  • LeuthLeuth
    He needs to bat at 9 and have a thrash tbh

    he's gotta go .. his bowling is not all that either .. might as well pick Leach, or another pace bowler .

    At least Leach will help solve a problem with the openers.

    And both fail

    Ali can't bat against Lyon.
    9 times to the same bowler.
    Bairstow wicket makes Aussies favourites again.
  • LeuthLeuth
    At least Ali brings bowling to the team. Bairstow OR Buttler is the selection and they can't fudge it again

    Yep Bairstow needs to go and I’m struggling to make the case for Moeen now too.

    I’d probably drop both at this point. Leach in, Foakes or Curran in.

    Bring in Foakes to bat and keep at 7 and pick 2 form Bairstow, Buttler and Denley?

    we know he's your numero uno pash .. BUT, his bowling is mediocre at best and his batting is rubbish .. he's gotta go and I'll wager he won't be in the team for the next test .. Ali, score a ton 2nd innings and take a 5 fer .. prove me wrong

    The England shirt has three lions on it, not three pears.

    Foakes is a far better keeper than  Bairstow and on current form a better batsman also.

    If they were to drop Bairstow and Ali - which team would you choose?

    A ) Burns, Roy, Root, Denly, Northeast, Stokes, Buttler, Woakes, Leach, Broad, Jimmy/Archer. 

    B ) Burns, Sibley, Root, Denly, Roy, Stokes, Buttler, Woakes, Leach, Broad, Jimmy/Archer

    C ) Burns, Roy, Root, Denly, Buttler, Stokes, Foakes, Woakes, Leach, Broad, Jimmy/Archer.

    D ) Another. 


  • Cafc43v3rCafc43v3r
    Selection should be easy, 6 batsman, Stokes and 4 bowlers.  We only really have 2 or 3 of the 6, and one of them is Stokes.

    Just...let's see how Moeen bowls in the second innings before we dig his grave

    Burns, Roy, Root, Denly, Stokes, Buttler, Foakes/Curran, Woakes, Broad, Leach, Jimmy/Archer.

    Basicallt C but I’d consider bringing in Curran over Foakes just because the kid can bat better than Bairstow and Ali can, plus he’s an additional threat with the ball in hand.
