    @Donsteppa I think in cricket like Rugby there has to be a proportion of selections that are on form.
    Form temporary/class permanent doesn’t always cut it.

    Blundell, Latham and Conway's averages have been declining rapidly for awhile. Time for changes

    Time to move on from Conway and Blundel both are walking wkts atm.
    I bet Will Young is feeling sick .

    Drop Blundell, make Conway keep wicket and bat in the middle order to try and rebuild his confidence. Young slots in to open. Latham is captain so he's just gonna have to do better. Simples

    @canefan we have a problem with catching - I'd rather pick the best gloveman in the country and runs are a bonus.

    The boys in the field are at fault there...

    Blundell has had catching issues for a while now whilst Conway is a part timer

    Same with Southee from a bowling perspective. That’s four from 11, far too many to carry

    Nah Conway adds no more than Blundel with the gloves new WK ,Conway doesn’t need to worry about WK as well.
    Conway goes away and sorts out those horrible technique problems he has even batting in the middle order they will produce the same results.

    That’s is not Blundel he has been untidy for a while.
    So agree pick the best WK.

    That feels like an Umpire making a "brave" call based on having DRS as insurance.

    As soon as the finger went up it was out
    One problem with DRS.

    Here’s my prediction, we get a few more runs but England will need less than 60 to win.

    We snag a few wickets in Englands chase by taking all our catches but England win by 7 wickets 😀

    Looked highish but as soon as the umpire gave it, there was never going to be a question.

    Or England’s game is just better than ours in the conditions that they love to play in.

    It’s not the first time we have fielded like this. I’m sure they practice catching at least once a day?

    Do they ? Repetition creates results it is the only way to create good habits and enhances concentration, I don’t think they practice enough, if you drop 8 catches a lot of those regulation sitters in an innings.
