Well Dan your analysis is borderline prophetic. Bowling Jack after lunch for an extended spell against two lefties totally let them off the hook. It was probably the the death bell on Joe's captaincy. The two strongest thoughts I have on the team and I would like your thoughts please. Buttler in my view is not a test wicket keeper and his figures suggest not a test batsman. I would drop him and put Johnny in at 7 where his average flourishes; or could also see the case for Foakes. I would be interested to know, but doubt it is possible, how many runs some of these 'batting' wicket keepers cost in missed chances.
brilliant analysis Dan. So who are the bowlers at Adelaide? Also do England need a leggie if so who if Adil can't be persuaded?

Morgan as a specialist captain a la Brearley?
