Are we saving Moeen for the 20/20 matches then? I'd definitely want him in both limited overs line ups.
Even one spinner is a rarity in Englands ODI's lately. They are trying out Matt Parkinson as a leg spinner.

So Moeen doesn't make the cut - plus with the bat its been a while. But down the order you don't get too many good chances.

44 off 30 should be a routine chase.

Really need a couple more overs of Roy and Bairstow together.

I assume you are a fan of (Root) vegetables, but he doesn’t play in this side. Juicing beetroots not really my thing, though very good for blood oxygen levels.

Cracking day ahead, lets hope for another close encounter. I’d love to see QDK or Bairstow make a big century.

Never in doubt !

Amazing matches, all three

Is that the highest international run chase ?

Apparently Australia successfully chased 245 off New Zealand.

Yes, This was the record ever T20 International run chase.

England have chased 230 before now too.

I wondered who had the record.
