Summer 2020 Cricket Thread

Could any of these T20 players do a job in the test team? Bairstow seems out of touch even in T20. I’d like to see Roy given a chance again but not as an opener, maybe down the order. Malan I know has failed before. Banton could be interesting maybe? People will say it doesn’t translate but Buttler, Bairstow, Morgan, Root, Stokes, Mooen Ali, Rashid, Archer and Wood have all played T20 and test cricket with varying degrees of success

Roy was such a bad call last year. Blind optimism to think he would work as a Test opener. Would he do better lower down the order? Probably, but is he better than those already in the side - not for me, Aggers.

Aye, spending some time with his family which is fair enough considering he has helped us win the T20 series already.

He basically won the T20 series for England, and with a game to spare too
