invincibles looking very vincible atm

Roy gets a first baller, which feels like progress because he hasn't wasted 6 or 7 balls getting there

Roy has been left out of the T20WC squad. Looks like he's been replaced by Salt

Dropping Roy was due. But I'm surprised.

Didn't expect Woakes would make the T20 squad. Seven pace bowlers in it, including Gentle Ben, so could still be a long way from selection.

Roy might get a reprieve, because YJB may have broken his leg playing golf today, if reports are to be believed

feels clumsy

Brook might get in for the 3rd test now

If Roy wasn't going to feature in the WC, I'd imagine that the plan was going to be opening with YJB and Buttlerfingers. Not now!

Bairstow was in danger of seeing me to the 2022 FL.

Sarah Glenn rips the guts out of India's batting at CLS with 4-23, but India look well placed to make 130, which might very well prove competitive

Turned out to be not remotely competitive. England will be pleased to have won so easily with several of their established big guns not playing. Promising signs from some of these teenagers.

A very successful first summer for Stokes and co. Add to that, the Cricket has been good to watch. Question is, can they continue to be so positive and keep winning?
