    ***Official*** England vs Sri Lanka 21st August-10th September 2024

    I think on merit over the past few seasons Jennings should be next in line, but maybe be his Test failures when he was younger count against him.

    Pope's finest innings as captain.

    ***Official*** England vs Sri Lanka 21st August-10th September 2024

    Follow on cons: not really needed with loads of time left in the game, worse for the bowlers, probably Sri Lanka's best chance to get back into the game. Follow on pros: potentially quickest route to the golf course. I can see it would be a tough call for Pope!

    Allan Border vs Younis Khan

    So these two have very similar raw stats (Younis a touch better). Despite batting down the order more than Younis, Border gets the nod for playing in a bowling friendly era and in a worse side. But was he really much better than Younis? In terms of contribution to his team, his runs per innings...

    Joe Root is really rather good at this.

    England's best batsmen coming together now. Can they salvage this?

    ***Official*** England vs Sri Lanka 21st August-10th September 2024

    Kinda a patchwork England side with a makeshift opening bat, stand in captain, balance skewed due to missing our batting all-rounder and one of our senior bowlers out injured. And it feels doubly so since the side already had three rookies (albeit promising ones) in Smith, Atkinson and Bashir...
