You'd think they'd acclimatised to the subcontinent spin by now, so I put it down more to application and patience, which the white ball game has rather drummed out of them all, bar Root.

What about Sibley? Wait, I’ve got the explanation for him... he’s fucking shite . It shows how bad the options are for openers that he’s playing.

Romey 1878 Posted July 6, 2021 Report Share Posted July 6, 2021 With the whole England ODI squad to face Pakistan having to be changed due to original squad having to isolate, I'd expect Pakistan to do to us what we just did to Sri Lanka and take us apart.

Will be very interesting to see who they select, Stokes coming in as captain is a positive but there are going to be some unfamiliar names in there.

MikeO Posted July 6, 2021 Report Share Posted July 6, 2021 Ben Stokes (Durham, captain), Jake Ball (Nottinghamshire), Danny Briggs (Warwickshire), Brydon Carse (Durham), Zak Crawley (Kent), Ben Duckett (Nottinghamshire), Lewis Gregory (Somerset), Tom Helm (Middlesex), Will Jacks (Surrey), Dan Lawrence (Essex), Saqib Mahmood (Lancashire), Dawid Malan (Yorkshire), Craig Overton (Somerset), Matt Parkinson (Lancashire), David Payne (Gloucestershire), Phil Salt (Sussex), John Simpson (Middlesex), James Vince (Hampshire).

Indeed, that one was just amazing, releases the ball with a split second to spare then leaves the ground to make the catch with even less, can't remember seeing anything comparable in the men's game.
