Surely for english fan it doesnt get any better than Warner. A cock who is completely on the rack against broad!
As captain,Burns has a very good record at county level. Seems fairly level headed and I really like his weird technique. Im not sure the stokes could bowl, bat, field AND captain but the man is superhuman and seems to raise his game when under pressure.
Root should definitely stay in, he used to be such a formidable batsman. I remember feeling dread when he came in. Still excellent, but now seems to have developed some flaws.
Wade seems deadweight for the ausies and bit of a gobshite (I kinda like that in an Australian side though. You need a comedy hate figure), Labushagne a revelation this series and Smith is really the difference. Cummins and Hazelwood both been class.
We've been hamstrung by selectors who seem determined to make a test batsman out of Jason Roy despite now eight innings of evidence that he's really not. Root should be in the side, but batting at 4. I can't see an obvious replacement for him as captain, possibly Stokes? Not sure.
