1-3 is not working I think we either need to move the order around or make a change.

Woofles? About time some other counties started providing players, the in form Yorkshire batsmen are Leaning and Bairstow.

I think the top 4 does need a change of some description, as it keeps failing as a unit.

Agree.  I think bringing a right hander in to partner Cook could help as the current top three are all left handlers which allows bowlers to settle on a line.  As for who that would be, Hales would be in with a shout or we could go back to someone like Compton.

The Stokes run out one of the most moronic dismissals I've ever seen, one of the first things you're taught as a child is to ground your bat.

It's a terrible cricket wicket.

And we get what we deserve for trying to produce an anti-cricket wicket rather than one to suit our bowlers.

[taylorsworkrate]

Yep, ironically by producing these types of pitches we play into their hands because their bowlers are 5mph quicker than ours.

[PaulWinch again]

This has been a cataclysmicly poor display. It's that bad that they'll have to make changes now. Utterly awful.

[PaulWinch again]

To be 60-5 on this pitch shows a lack of pride, as well as fight.

[PaulWinch again]

Our bowling has also been pathetic as well. Buttler gone as well, terrible shot. This is truly dire.

[PaulWinch again]

This is the complete antithesis of Cardiff. It's been spineless and pathetic. I'd look at Bairstow and Hales.

[PaulWinch again]

Terrible Ali.

[villan from luton]

This is a total disgrace, the opener Balance and Bell must be looking at being binned. Bowling wise, are we that good as well? At least Finn can bully the batsmen. Why did they not just play their normal game instead of feebly giving in
