Good shout that but think Robinson is the long term Anderson replacement as in playing every game if fit
Not at the speed he was bowling in the first 2 tests, 80mph is not fast enough, Lords with the conditions and a bit of grass on the wicket the first morning he Bowed crap and slow,
Let's hope Wood can stay fit and can bowl at around 90mph with bounce, Woakes should have played at Lords and a spinner as well

Same. Had a feeling that's the way they'd go however. Has had his share of injuries (standard for our pacemen) so maybe they are unsure whether he can back it up? Also there is the new ball to consider and maybe they are keeping him in reserve for when Wood breaks down!Tongue did enough to stay in the team, Robinson should have been dropped

Huge responsibility on Brook even though he is a huge talent. Would prefer to go with an opener type at three but we are struggling as it is.
Still not going with Foakes is a strange one for me.

Yeah his speed was down a bit but he has the height to get a bit more out of pitches

Robinson can bowl spin better than he did at Lords

Not just the men who can collapse like a deck of cards. The women have gone from 100-1 to 119-6 in 23 deliveries.
Agree apart from the spinner. We’ve not got a good one and Root is adequate. Shame Stokes can hardly bowl these days or we could have had a top class wicket keeper in who’s also handy with the batNot at the speed he was bowling in the first 2 tests, 80mph is not fast enough, Lords with the conditions and a bit of grass on the wicket the first morning he Bowed crap and slow,

Good recovery to 186-9 though. Well batted Dani WyattNot just the men who can collapse like a deck of cards. The women have gone from 100-1 to 119-6 in 23 deliveries.

I think Rehan Ahmed could be world-class but England never like playing a leg spinner for some reason,
He took 5 wickets in Pakistan so must have something in him to play and take wickets over there.
