3rd Investec Test: England v India at Southampton - Pre Match Discussion Thread

[ShebbySB]

If they are replacing Plunkett it's good for us....Woakes lacks the pace to trouble us though he bats pretty well.Jordan is a quick bowler,have to play him well.So 2 sides will look like this:- England-Cook,Robson,Ballance,Bell,Root,Ali,Buttler,Woakes, Broad,Jordan,Anderson. India-Dhawan,Vijay,Pujara,Kohli,Rahane,Rohit,Dhoni,Jadeja,BK,Shami,Ishant. We're clearly a bowler short.

People playing India for the first time tend to do well so Jordan is already a threat :nervous:

Jordan isnt quicker than Plunket or Stokes.

yes, Jordan lacks accuracy as well.

yes' date=' Jordan lacks accuracy as well.[/quote'] He blows hot and cold. Sometimes he bowls great spells or has a good match. Good batsman though.

Last time saw Woakes he was pretty slow and ordinary bowler but very good batsman. They say he has got faster.
