    Hales played a nice sensible innings yet and made sure he was there at the end. When Stokes comes back, I am not convinced you really need Root in there.
    Certainly don't need both Root and Morgan, I guess they won't drop the captain though

    Still don't rate Morgan, Stokes or Morgan, I know which I'd choose

    To me he is the complete one day batsman. He can play the accumulator role and the ballistic and is able (when in form) to switch between the two.

    Root's ability to do this, although not in quite the same way, is what is lacking form his game at present.

    I honestly have no idea how he's achieved this feat, I know he was decent a few years back but not so much recently

    A fairly decent knock the other day, 60 odd from around 30 balls.....

    Lots of useful knocks of around 30-40 odd, I guess I just find him a little underwhelming
