    4th Test at Old Trafford, Manchester

    Thanks for the welcome and yes regarding the mediocre defensive technique comment above .. I think Stokes proved that to be totally wrong in the first part of his innings the other day, he was like a wall/ Dravid MkII. I think the main point im getting at though is that when players are left...

The ashes are still up for grabs moving towards 2 massive tests to come. The selectors for England...
