Foakes yes but not sure YJB is an Ashes Opener. Having said that not sure who is good enough in England atm.I agree, I would drop Crawley and put Johnny Bairstow to open and bring in Foakes as wicket keeper

Blimey. Great spot. Not sure our hearts would have survived a reviewed if they had had one.Possibly. Still maintain to this day that it flicked his front pad first therefore not out. Whether that would have been picked up during the review process we will never know.

Nah not taking credit for that!Blimey. Great spot. Not sure our hearts would have survived a reviewed if they had had one.
There was a bit of debate about it in the aftermath. That picture iirc came from Jim Maxwells Twitter feed when he was arguing the point with felliow Aussies.
If he was given out on review I'm certain a lot more would have been made of it.
Anyway here we go again ....
Batting first is a gamble for me. lose early wickets and the pressure starts almost straight away.
Also, it could be that we are giving Anderson and Robinson more time to get fitter, I would have bowled first with the swing attack we have

Root in before 12?Good start we won the toss and batting let’s hope the openers put on a good score now!

Maybe it’s the day Crawley gets a big score and our openers hang around till 3pm at least

yeah I get that, but if there is a little bit in the air and it nips and swings the pitch does not matter
We will find out if it was the right decision in about an hour…yeah I get that, but if there is a little bit in the air and it nips and swings the pitch does not matter
