@BoothCricket How though? He doesn’t bowl 90mph plus? 😐

[Dan_the_man @Dan01222]

@englandcricket It makes me laugh, this set up really don’t learn from their mistakes. They watch Neser and Henry type bowlers bowl, and think yeah fu*k accuracy, let’s keep going high pace. Them still selecting Bashir as front line spinner should’ve been the end of them before this. Clueless.

@NoContextCounty 1. Duckett
2. Gay
3. Hain
4. Root
5. Brook
6. Stokes
7. Smith
8. Robinson
9. Archer
10. Leach
11. Tongue

[Dan_the_man @Dan01222]

@NoContextCounty Best seamer Robinson, who I know has been injured this test. Best spinner Leach. Best keeper behind the stumps, which is Foakes, but he’s injured so it will be Smith. Sam Hain to bat at 3. It’s not a complicated game when selecting on merit.

@YorkshireCCC Which team is bottom? Disgraceful lads. Walk home.

[Dan_the_man @Dan01222]

@TheBarmyArmy Feel for Rew cost the team a lot of runs with his drops. He’s got potential with the bat. Thought he was unlucky with that LBW, it kept low. Shouldn’t be playing as keeper just yet. That’s surely on the selectors not seeing that beforehand though? Not him.

[Dan_the_man @Dan01222]

@AdamSants_ Smith isn’t miraculously a great keeper tbf. Was poor in the ashes, and struggles with the bat when conditions aren’t easy.

[Dan_the_man @Dan01222]

@kieren_rees @englandcricket Hope he does, very talented. Needs to sort out getting bowled when the balls nipping as well though. Watched Brook castle him all ends up a couple of weeks a go.

[Dan_the_man @Dan01222]

@PauliH1966 @TheBarmyArmy It was a bit of sarcasm buddy.

[Dan_the_man @Dan01222]

@kieren_rees @englandcricket I meant with the gloves, he’s decent with the bat on flat pitches for sure.

[Dan_the_man @Dan01222]

@englandcricket The selections for this test have been awful.

[Dan_the_man @Dan01222]

@kieren_rees @englandcricket There’s other keepers with the gloves better than Smith available tbf.

[Dan_the_man @Dan01222]

@YorkshireCCC Minefield is it lads? Embarrassing if not.

[Dan_the_man @Dan01222]

@TheBarmyArmy Can the team not go back to picking the best opening bowler available, best keeper and spinner. It’s not really difficult. Being all about pace and bits and piece players is stupid.

Yeah yeah, crouchy is great, but the presenter coming in with the completely wrong part of the song killed me. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

@willis_macp Common sense prevails.

[Dan_the_man @Dan01222]

@TheBarmyArmy Good early signs from him. Looks to have a very good temperament. The tougher challenges will come now though. Looked uncomfortable with that short ball.
