‘Isn’t good enough’. Ability is not a fixed thing.
Buttler has shown enough that he has a fair defensive side to his game which can still be improved upon.
Given the chance he could shine but we may never know.
Other options would appear to be minimal.

I believe this was SKY's doing Bap. They wanted a fresher approach. I think we all know what that means. Isha will doubtfully be on her own from now on.

As for today, good start but as ever are struggling to get loose change and Smith out.

Another record for Steve Smith:..... he now has the most runs in a Test series on English soil by a Smith, eclipsing Graeme Smith's 714 runs against England in 2003.

Over 1400 runs last 2 ashes series and counting. Crikey.

Steve Smith has now scored 751 runs at an average of 125.16 and has batted 1,854 minutes, just short of 31 hours.

Nice to see Archer bowl well.

By:

HGS When: 13 Sep 19 18:07

Yup. 6 for Archer but Woakes only got one but was the main man. Anyways, Australia 225 all out and trail by 69 runs. Dodgy 20 minutes to follow for England.

They look p1ss poor totals to me on what looks a very good wicket. Need to get to close and bat all day tomorrow for starters!

England are very short now, I would not be interested at the price they are now personally.

SlippyBlue When: 13 Sep 19 18:11

I've had to take them on @ 1.42.

Looks like you have missed a good day slippy.

By:

HGS When: 13 Sep 19 18:37

Standard may be poor but nonetheless a lot happening. Denly dropped in the slips by Harris, a dolly and Burns given out lbw last ball of the day. Poor decision by Kumar as pitching well outside and rightly reviewed. Englanfd 9-0 at stumps and lead by 78. Thats part 1 taken care of.Just need to bat all day tomorrow now.

A guy called Smith had inflicted an awful lot of pain on England

144 bowled v England Birmingham
142 caught v England Birmingham

92 lbw v England Lord's
sub v England Lord's

211 caught v England Manchester
82 caught v England Manchester

80 lbw v England The Oval

751 runs from 6 innings, giving an average of 125.17
If he is out for a duck in his second knock at The Oval, his average for the series drops to 107.29

He ain't labelled a freak for nowt.

Jack Hacksaw When: 13 Sep 19 22:13

First time I saw him, I said he batted like a pub cricketer.

I know we haven't won the Ashes, but 2-2 wouldn't be too bad.
