England thread

I'm going to go a bit outside the box with a England XI from that squad

Buttler
Malan
Root
Bairstow (wk)
Stokes
Moeen
Curran
Woakes
Wood
Rashid
Topley

Think that is the perfect blend of power hitters and accumulators
Quite a disappointing line up. If they were all available for Australia I'd only pick Root and Buttler, the rest wouldn't make the team. Bairstow maybe if he could pass a beep test and we had an injury or 2

Apart from the fact 7 of them were in the team which smashed Australia in the semi in 2019.

Not that it's relevant, but that Aus team was weaker than it is now, England lost more games than Aus that tournament anyway, and most of those Poms were in peak form then but aren't now

I think topley and woakes should open the bowling, but moeen at no. 6 could be risky and he needs to score some runs.
