nitinbwj Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 Captaincy messed up Buttler completely. Should relinquish it ASAP. Link to comment
Ankit_sharma03 Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 having the same feeling ever since butler became captain this side looks deranged, now that they have lost 2 left hander- stokes-morgan from middle i wud wanna see how they build their ODI batting . Mix of left and right is a huge part of their limited over strategy Morgan as captain was too good Link to comment
Frustrated Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 Not sure what exactly it is. But their star opener Jason Roy's batting style these days looks very similar to that of Loli. That pretty much sums it up. raki05 1 Link to comment

That's the case with most other teams as well. Due to covid , there were hardly any intl matches in 2020 and most part of 2021. Link to comment

They'll be good once Archer and Wood return Is Stokes retired from T20Is as well? Why didnt he play in this series? England is okay batting wise but their bowling is weak, without Woakes and Wood. Archer seems like a memory now not sure how effective he will be in his comeback, whenever that is. England should look for 1-2 enforcer type bowlers like Wood to fix their team balance.

Sean Bradley Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 Their key players, Roy, Butler are out of form, Stokes retired, bowlers like Woods, Archer, Saqib Mehmoood injured, I hardly see a problem, this seems more like a temporary glitch to me. Lord and nevada 2 Link to comment

Nikhil_cric Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 During that 2015-2019 period, the white kookaburra ball was at it's worst. It barely moved off the straight and faster, flatter English wickets, this encourage their style of attacking play. Kookaburra upgraded sometime after the World Cup and as you can see the results of such attacking play haven't paid off as much as they used to. Also the pitches haven't been absolute belters either . England need to recalibrate their approach . raki05 1 Link to comment

vvvslaxman Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 When they collectively click they look monstrous. When they collectively fail they look pathetic. But in T20 this approach is still the best approach on flat roads. If they can fine tune their game on helpful surfaces they will be even more dangerous. Link to comment
