Archer and Wood, such a good new ball pair!

 

[mackembhoy]

Wood already bowled more balls over 90mph than Jofra managed in the test series.

Wood bowled that speed consistently in Sri Lanka and did in the windies and south Africa bowling us to victory.

Not sure the obessesion with archer as a red ball cricketer he's not been fit since the ashes so why they've persisted with him is beyond me.

This crowd is definitely more than 50% capacity with literally no social distancing and barely anyone keeping a mask on.

Archer will do well in red ball cricket and has looked impressive so far. Regarding the injury, I do agree that they should wait for him to be fully fit. He relies on accuracy and seam movement, he can only be effective if he is fully fit and can bowl as fast as he can.

Indians have stopped giving a ****. Old-school absorb the losses and move on with life attitude.

It’s possible England I see doing better against a huge score lowish score they may be in between two minds could expose their frailties against spin

Which seems to be the only way.

Wood is such an amazing trier. Holds nothing back whatsoever.

 

[Red_Ink_Squid]

Only following this via text commentary, but obviously seems to be going well so far. Dropping our 2nd spinner when playing away in India wasn't what I was expecting. The mixture of pace options it gives Morgan does look nice though, and I like that it gets more out of Curran generally. Just makes you wish one of the top order could bowl an over or two of spin though for balance (e.g. Root or Livingstone, or even playing Moeen himself up top in place of Roy could work).

 

[cnerd123]

Iyer proving that form is temporary but class is permanent

 

[Shri]

lets just say it

panauti is out of form

sky should be playing

 

[theegyptian]

good effort that. fielding spot on.

 

[Shri]

ugh shreyas' goatee is off centre on his chin and its vexing me

 

[sunilz]

Lohli ?

 

[chris.hinton]

Should be doable in around 14-16 overs.

 

[White Ball]

Think this may be a better score than people think on this deck
