These hacks are making Boland look like Dennis Lillee today.

Boland deserves to finish it right here

Cmon RB he might not have converted like he should have in Australia but I'd say he's the least of our worries. Did you see our batting stats for 2021? It's one of the most absurd stats ever. Imagine how many runs he would make if he got to play in this Australian side rather then coming in at 2 for 15 everytime.

6 for 5 is amazing BUT Hazelwood HAS to come back in.

15 deliveries today for Boland for 4/4

Loved the way his team mates got around him at the end of the over

Do they rest Starc?
Hazelwood comes in for Starc.
Does Richardson or Boland play as well?

I’d go with Cummins, Hazelwood and Richardson

All Over.

Agreed BB

England in 2021:
Root 1700 runs
Burns 560 runs
Extras 460 runs

And he scored the bulk of those runs against the best attack in the world- India who tore our blokes a new one last season

This is the worst English team I’ve seen. 1 batsman 1 all rounder and 3 bowlers.

Too big a load carried by too few who are fatigued after playing almost 20 tests in 30 months in bio-bubbles.

This English side a shot ducks.

Root reminds me of Border in the mid 80s a single batsman carrying the load for his team

Kudos to him.

Hazelwood has/had an injury, rest him a bit more,
we've retained The Ashes,
no harm in leaving BOWL-LAND in the side.

Fair enough.

I think my point stands though. I wouldn't pick him over any other touring side's top batsman that I can recall, excluding the Bangers and Zimmers of course. Just nicks up playing nothing shots so often.

I think the stats above are more of a reflection on Root's dud teammates.

Other than the romance, I’m not sure Boland should be MOTM

Ok, who should be?

Richardson also fit to go
