Shami also batted 8 in a tour to Australia. ATG bad number 8.

This England bowling attack doesn't bowl well to lefties IMO.

Granted Wood isn't much better to righties, but i think the other four all bowl better to righties too.

Would be nice to see the stats. All attacks need a southpaw killer.

I thought Moeen did well against the lefties?

 

[Window]

As I was saying about reaching 400, even that seems optimistic now.

 

[cnerd123]

I thought Moeen did well against the lefties?

Would make sense given all offspinners should dominate lefties

Why on earth is Shami at 8 above Ishant? Why??

Was never on with a tail like this. Jaddu has to go nuts from here. SUrprised he even gave Shami three balls to face.

 

[honestbharani]

Hameed has looked really awkward in the field all test and yet he still fielding at point which is supposed to be a more difficult position.

You were at this about Ashwin at point too. Its not that important a position in tests, dude.

Anderson is very good against lefties, certainly no worse than he is to right-handers.

 

[Arachnodouche]

Drop Rahane, send Jadeja in at 5, play Ashwin.

 

[Calm_profit]

Jadeja will repeat like WTC finals performance,he clearly doesn't know how to play with tail.

 

[Lillian Thomson]

Fast bowler has just taken a wicket so they set the field right back with only one slip bowling to number 7 who’s only got 20. Just bowl to get him out.

 

[OverratedSanity]

I was going to say Broad among the ones missing but I think his domination of Warner was an outlier relative to his success against other lefties?

 

[OverratedSanity]

Jadeja will repeat like WTC finals performance,he clearly doesn't know how to play with tail.

Just another reason he should just be promoted up the order.

 

[harsh.ag]

Jadeja at 5

Five seems a bit silly to me, it's not like Rahane is awesome with the tail either, and if India were 20/3 I think Rahane would handle it a lot better.

He should be coming in ahead of Pant though.

 

[OverratedSanity]

I feel like this is something that has little to no evidence to support it and youve just said it because it sounds like it should be correct.

 

[cnerd123]

Rahane came in at 3 for not many during the 36/9 and did **** all

Wrong

Rahane sucks

 

[Shri]

Wrong

Rahane sucks

think he'd have been fine without kohli coming back and playing politics

kohli should have retired after his kid was born
