I actually think watching him against Liverpool U23s he could be a 10 working in the pocket behind CKR as could Lawrence when fit. 
 
I would play Sibley at Barnsley and let’s see what he does

Pant and Washington have put game out of sight for England .
Team selection was awful one again. 
 
We went with extra Batsman and misread pitch again. 
 
 

Not getting up to watch tomorrow. English cricket has seen some miracles recently. But our usual purveyor of miracles is B Stokes and there’s no amount of pickle juice or ice baths that will revive him after what he put himself through in 41* today 

England struggling again 
188-8 

Maybe more than 2 goals now, with just a few kicks left in the game

I think I’m switching off now.
So disappointed with it. 

Hey, don't give up yet. India need at least 46! #rootunplayable

I think England should come home now .
 

That's the point, isn't it? The authorities will not be happy with the loss of revenue. I wonder if the tv company gets a refund too? Channel 4 been sold a pup! 

That's the bottom line.
Pitches haven't been great but we're just no where near where we need to be vs India in India. I was happy to get a win on the board in the first match, was expecting 4-0. 

I think England should come home now .
 

It's a disgrace and they will almost certainly get away with it.
The commentators were just talking about the the pitch getting slower. It's the 2nd session of day 2.
Also, there was a lot of (rather foolish) talk coming out of the England camp about quick bowlers and the pink ball. Lo and behold we get a pitch where a fast bowler can't put their front foot down safely.

I think cpt Kohli has given the groundsman his instructions. And stolen his watering can just to be sure 

Seem to be rabbits in headlights.
Play a one day innings someone 

Now Root gone   They are preparing pitches which India’s spinners should win on whether or not they lose the toss. 

It would have been umpire's call.
Root gone, game gone. 

Why hasn't Stokes reviewed that? Looked to be going down leg. 

Stokes should review surely 

No that was talking about Sibley mate. 
 
I think Root may have got lucky there though as I think pad bat pad so LBW but a tough call for off field umpire

Well it’s a big issue.
Root up the order !
Cricket totally different though in the sub continent 

Didn’t look like it hit the bat on slow motion 

England need to look at the top order .

The line is moving before the ball is anywhere near the bat, never understood why India don't have hot spot.
