And ideally Jos would be the original idea of a specialist no.7. At the very least, batting six with a proper top 5 ahead of him.

I love Sam Curran and hope he comes good, but we've ended up dropping 2 of our failing top 3 (before Root moved up) for an ODI slogger who's never batted for more than 3.5 hrs and has the same red ball average and centuries as Foakes, and the other for yet another 4th seamer who can slog.

You can't win tests with an ODI team.
Where has Stokes said he won't bat above 6?
