What a terrible day! I was there yesterday and had some ambitious thoughts about turning up on Monday to see it finished. Thanks England.
I think one of the most concerning things is the muddled thinking that’s evident. Examples -- Bracey brought into squad to be the extra batsman. Foakes gets injured and they decide - ah well Bracey can keep a bit we’ll chuck him into an unfamiliar position and thus confuse him and ratchet up the pressure.- No spinner picked in first game, not particularly successful. A baked Edgbaston pitch and again fail to choose a spinner and end up with two part timers bowling, who get belted around the park.
Didn't even make it to 11am - the official start time.
