Still think we’re looking a bit deeply into this. The pitch changed hugely, some of the **** Ravindra was getting away with wouldn’t have had a prayer later on.

I’d be more concerned about Topley and Atkinson who were poor.

He was absolutely excellent between 2016 and 2019. Him and Plunkett combining throughout the middle overs is what made us so good.

Were you watching someone else for half a decade?

He's been less effective in ODI since 2019 but he's still been doing the job T20I especially both world cups.
No, I've never rated him.

Atkinson not so surprising when you think how little List A cricket he has played. Topley was comedically poor though.

Question for the Kiwis. How come Sodhi didn't play? Not that it mattered of course, but just wondered.

Moeen, Curran and Wood probably.

Have to admit I thought Jofra was around. He's a huge hole.
Mo isn't bowling better than Livingstone at the mo and Curran and Topley are much of muchness really. England's big hope is Wood performing per his potential and not his record but the pace bowling looks decidedly underwhelming imo. Need a Jofra.

Back in NZ (or travelling atm) spending time with his family. It was arranged weeks ago.

Also Neesham and Chapman are both about to become fathers so are also unavailable for these ODIs.
