Englands best bowlers come in the middle overs. Think their opening bowlers can be a bit powderpuff if conditions don’t suit

Two quick wickets for England. South Africa 187-3, 30 overs. Bavuma 109, Van der Dussen 38. Need 152 off 20 overs.
Series lost. Not the end of the world but we need to be more ruthless with our squad/team selection.
Get Hales in, get salt in, get Roy out (I know he got a ton last game) move Buttler up the order. There's a number of young dynamic English players out there doing great in franchise cricket, give them a go. Our test side score at a quicker rate than our odi side ffs!

Just driven past Edgbaston about 20 mins ago… impressive looking place.

Heavyweight signings those, and for the majority of the season, very pleasing.
CdG being there for the whole of the Blast is brilliant
Would have loved Tim David to come back but a proper all-rounder has been lacking
God, Archer is so good
Really happy for the guy it's been a long way back. Hope he is able to play some Ashes stuff.
