But England only have 1 full time spinner in the team.
Broad and Anderson play together. Archer, Crawley and Bairstow in too.
3 seamers?!

India have opted for 3 spinners

He was batting well in Sri Lanka. They should have retained him for the start of the series.

that well he didnt convert his 20s and 30s to a 50. utterly unreal how many chances he gets to prove he isnt actually good enough as a test batsman since he changed his technique in 2017 to succeed in white ball cricket and continues to miss way too many straight ones

i can see why a saffer would want us to keep picking him though :)
