Uilleam 5,278 Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 Roy at 3 would allow Root to go in at 4, apparently his preferred position, with Stokes at 5, Bairstow at 6. (No Denly). Who opens is a bit of a mystery. There must be someone in England, surely? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott7 5,009 Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 Number three has to be able either to push the score on after a good start or to dig in and repair the damage of the loss of of an early wicket. M. C. Cowdrey the perfect example. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, he's had a decent break, scoring runs in the County game. it would look desperate, mind. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He gives them an x factor in terms of their bowling, with his pace, height and bounce. The question for me is whether he has the match fitness to play 5 days and run in for a 4th spell in an innings. Seems Jofra Archer responded as I thought. Headingley will be interesting on Thursday 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott7 5,009 Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 Archer did well. Not just wicket-taking but the number of overs bowled was more than satisfactory. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
