England vs Pakistan | 4th ODI | Trent Bridge, Nottingham | May 17, 2019 | Match thread |


Recommended Posts

No Morgan, no Bairstow. That's two of the top four in the batting line-up not playing. If England still manage to get 400, God help whoever plays against them in the World Cup. :fear1:

Stokes will probably bat at 4 like he did last match. England might want to get him and Ali into some serious form. Alex Hales has been an absolute beast at this ground and Pakistan will be thankful for his absence. :pray:

James Vince is no mug with the bat . He was, comfortably , the best batsman in the Royal London Cup with a high average and striking @110. They won't miss Bairstow a lot.

As good as Vince may be, any opposition will prefer bowling to him over Bairstow at the blink of an eye. Bairstow is the second most ferocious hitter in the England line up after Buttler. 

Vince's batting is quite pleasing to the eye. He will be looking to strengthen his WC claim in Hales' place. Only problem is that he has a propensity to lose his wicket in the midst of being in sublime touch.

I agree. Bairstow is a fearsome hitter. I actually don't think they need Root at all. They can play 

 

Roy

Bairstow

Vince

Morgan

Buttler

Stokes

Ali

 

That lineup cam crush any bowling attack on a flat track. Root actually slows them down a bit.

Root is actually a key player. He holds one end in the middle overs and can score runs briskly also. No way is Vince better than him. 

Root is the main reason why we lost 2-1 in that last series.
