Can’t make my mind up about Tongue. He seems to bowl a lot of dross but capable of bowling a jaffa at any given moment. If everyone is fit, I’d say our best bowling attack is Stokes, Dawson/Rehan/Woakes, Atkinson, Archer and Wood.

What a ball that is.

We will probably sign Paqueta and play him there.

RIP Richards30.

According to Google, he stands at 192cm, 197cm and 198cm. Guess he’s pretty tall!

Throw in Grealish and Phillips and they’ve got themselves a deal.

May as well recall Chris Tremlett then.

No idea why the selectors continue to rate Jamie Overton. His brother is better and there’s many other superior bowlers playing in county cricket.

Liverpool could end up with the 1st, 2nd and 9th highest transfers in Premier League history. That Coutinho money sure went a long way.

Hogg was a one day specialist. He was never much use in test cricket. If anyone was unlucky back then, it was Stuart MacGill. He would have taken 400 wickets if he’d been born anywhere else.

Hopefully we can win here and rest Stokes and Archer for the final test. If we’re to stand any chance in the Ashes, we need them both fully fit and firing.

We should have moved for Eze last season.

As impressive as some of their signings are, I think they might be found wanting defensively next season. If they’re playing Frimpong as a conventional right back, lots of teams are going to have a lot of joy down their left-hand side.

Nitpicking but Gvardiol must play on the left side of defence.

They showed a graphic that showed Bashir drifts the ball the least from all the spinners to have bowled this series. Washington was far and away at the top.

Poor man’s Glenn Maxwell. He comes off once every 20 games.

This is the type of signing I’d expect West Ham to make.

India channeling their inner West Indies here.

Pope and Brook gone in quick succession.

I wonder whether this will be our top 7 come the first Ashes test in November. I’m still not completely sold on Pope. He struggles against high pace and spin, and his average in the second innings is under 20.
