This is great news and although we will still be massive underdogs, we will at least be able to balance the team now. It is also great news on a human level as depression and stress are so difficult to conquer. I suspect Chris Woakes will be a bit pissed off. He was looking increasingly likely to play in the absence of Stokes as the all rounder, now I suspect he might only play in swing friendly conditions(Adelaide and Melbourne?) Makes it easier for us to get Leach in the team though now which will certainly balance the side much better Burns Hameed Malan Root Stokes Pope Buttler Woakes/Robinson Leach Wood Anderson |

Pakistan looking so strong, but will they have a meltdown?
Looking forward to Scotland v Namibia tomorrow😉

I also don't think we will see a lot of Stokes with ball in hand. |

Agree with the rotation of Woakes, Robinson, Anderson. I’ve got a good feeling about Robinson for the Ashes, seems a strong character |

Great to see Stokes in. Gives us some kind of competitiveness.

If Smith and Labausagne fail with the bat we will run through em with our medium pace line and length. Mark my words |

Another good power play with the ball and in the field.
Leaving Bangladesh 27/3 after the power play. Moeen and Woakes both keeping good line and picking wickets up

Perhaps the ECB will take decisive action against the county for failing to disclose the full report it asked for and failing to take any action against the employees found to have been discriminatory?  Why would anyone of colour want to play for Yorkshire in future? |

Anyway, the Aussies looked decent today just in time for our game on Saturday. That said, Sri Lanka have been poor for the last few years in all formats so not concerned. Think we will have too much for Australia.

Excellent first ten overs by England...fireworks from the Aussies in the next ten or more wickets for England?

Buttler’s disdain for Zampa’s haircut is palpable. This is some filthy batting. Glorious.

Think we will have too much for Australia. Was a joy to watch that dismantling...and no doubt the right choice compared to the debacle that our match sounded like...  Good prediction, Badger...my tea tonight...  ![]() |

Big game this afternoon…
India v New Zealand.
Whoever loses this will be looking for other teams to do them a favour, and with this side of the draw being a much weaker group, that may be a forlorn hope.
Remember, with the hour change last night, kick off is an hour earlier at 2pm.

India will be a little nervous at the half way point… 110 is a pretty mediocre score.
Odds on the Black Caps.
But, of course, they’ve still got to get the runs.

An emphatic win.
India now look like they will be heading home early.
