Kohli loves the bowl-off-spinners-to-lefties thing an unhealthy degree. I reckon Ashwin wouldve played if Stokes hadnt pulled out of the tour, he was basically a free wicket for ash everytime.

is this only sub continent thing? off spinners likely to give lefties difficult times since ball will angle away from them but its overblown

Is Ishant broken again?

Bizarre call to omit him from the XI if not. Kind of bowler who looks tailor made for English conditions and he averages something stupid like 19 over the last three years too.

I really, really don't have faith in any of the batsmen in this side aside from kohli, pant and jaddu to do anything. Hopefully rohit can show something worthwhile in SENA conditions this time around. Looked good recently but thrown it away after starts over and over.

Simply getting starts would be an upgrade on our other openers in England conditions.

Shami should bowl first change. Wastes the new ball bowling that short-ish length. SIraj and Bumrah would do a better job although the latter is inconsistent too in terms of length.

Can anyone tell me if Siraj is still wearing his hair in that ridiculous topknot he did in Australia?

Bairstow playing is depressing tstl.

That blistering hundred form sure to translate to Test success.

Bails are shaking on their stumps.
