Nice Michelle for Patty.
Any Class A level minor league baseball team with 6 weeks training could beat any/best cricket team
Obligatory response:It takes longer than 6 weeks to explain how to play cricket. I'm not certain anybody really knows.
Well, this wasn't the 1st Innings score I wanted to wake up to. Rory Burns needs to go, and Root needs to drop the captancy (to Anderson?), so he can (re)start focussing on his batting.
And who the hell batts first on a green pitch with rain coming? I mean, dafuq???
Smith back as vice-cap is disgraceful enough tbh. But agreed, it's iffy to give it to a paceman, but right now, he's the elderly statesman the blokes look up to. Root has never really given me captaincy-vibes at all. Stokes maybe, in a couple of years. But right now, I think the best option they got, would be Anderson.Giving full time captaincy to a paceman is iffy... Doubtful that Cummins plays every game. Excuse ti get Smith back in there. Surprised he's not there already

Yeah, that whole thing still pisses me off to no end. First off, I don't agree with him stepping back for the incident. But to then go all "yeah, I need a mental health break", that just reeks of fishing for public sympathy.He's going to be captain again on day. I think it's probably time they ripped the band aid off and just gave it to him. I think if it wasn't for Paine resigning due to a off field incident, they would've just given it to him now
