International 12th Man
buttler won a wc last year

they just chose the wrong experienced players with no regard to conditions

dropping roy at the last minute weird as ****
Might be worth mentioning T20 world cup!
This is a real format, requires more temperament and patience for longer periods. couple overs of slog doesn't change the game.

The Jason Roy decision is a total red herring. He would only have been travelling as reserve bat anyway.

International Debutant
very unimaginative captaincy from Buttler - who looks way out of his depth - and from the selectors.

Their motto of front-foot cricket falls flat when their selection consists of has-beens of 4 and longer years ago, bowling has not been penetrative, and they have not taken any risks.

Buttler has to give up captaincy after this.

@Molehill what reason will you come up with to blame the bowlers for this one today? :ph34r:
No blame on the bowlers. We’ve lost by 100 runs and it’s probably our second best effort in the comp!!

Mind you, if India keep playing on pitches like this, no one will get close to them.

What was wrong with the pitch?

How can you blame the pitch for our shite batsman.
