Dr Gloom 22188 Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 Still wondered if we might collapse again if we lost root early but they made easy work of it in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 14019 Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 Hopefully the future is bright for Root & being free of the captaincy will help him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex 35653 Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 Great (and hopefully confidence-boosting) performance. I don’t like Pope at 3 though and Bairstow can still fuck right off 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 22188 Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 almost like a one day game - 299 required from 70 odd overs. in theory it's doable, especially with root in this form, no demons in the pitch and the kiwis minus one fast bowler due to injury. but we all know how this side can collapse - could go either way!

I’d quite like Crawley at 3. Pope is a more natural 5 for me (I know he got that 100 in the first innings but it’s a great pitch so perhaps not the best indicator). I always thought Moeen was a very naturally talented spinner who lacked a bit of belief. The thing is, and I’m not sure Leach has the variation to be a test spinner, the last test was Leach’s first home test since 2019. Whoever the spinner is needs more chances than that. Otherwise they get thrown in at the deep end, get hit out of the attack on a pitch that’s not helpful and then you’re back to looking for another one.
