Wait, who are half these England blokes. Smith? Atkinson? And Bashir is their first choice spinner nowadays? Arent they meant to be planning for an away Ashes series?

Atkinson is definitely part of that Ashes planning. He’s got wheels

Thought Hartley looked pretty good in India

 

[Kenneth Viljoen]

Mikyle Louis...
I can't remember many batsmen from St.Kitts playing for the West Indies..
If he's the first that's a proud moment for his Island. He could get a stadium named after him like Sammy

So did Saj Mahmood tbf

what about this Smith bloke? Is Foakes injured or has he been moved on?

They've deemed his batting not to be up to scratch.

Smith is a team mate of Foakes as it happens

 

[Starfighter]

I've just checked the score, so no doubt wickets will fall now.

Foakes has been dropped. Smith is a BazBall vibes pick, he doesn't keep full-time for his county as Foakes does that, and the other Robinson might have been a more obvious pick.

Mahmood sadly broke down a lot since he debuted, not been fit much the past couple of years.

Smith is deemed a better bat than Foakes (though not as good a keeper).

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Thats a great pick up shot

 

[social]

Fair shot

Sajid not Saqib in this case.

 

[Shri]

pitch doctoring by the cheating poms

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Brathwaite didnt look comfortable

 

[Red_Ink_Squid]

Nice start for Gus.

Nice one

 

[social]

Fk that’s an awful shot

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

you would expect brathwaite to leave that ball

 

[mackembhoy]

I just posted in-between overs elsewhere

"We've done the usual stupid thing of falling for overheads when Lords is always flat."

Gus owes me a beer.

I thought Keith Arthurton was from there but may be mistaken

 

[trundler]

Is Ollie Robinson not #intentful enough for Stokes and Baz? Not the fat one, the other one.
