England no 3 moeen ali experiment worked magic

Brooks doesn't have game for number 3. Root has failed miserably, that's why brook is also failing. Fortunately, when he came today, score was gettable. So he played freely. As Ben Stokes cant bowl, you need to have Moeen Ali in the XI to keep, pacers fresh. It's sad that Dan Lawrence has to sit out, but no other option. I wish both Tongue and Potts play next match. I hope Hain/Livingstone gets chance in test cricket in bazball era.

If Warner is out, Harris should come in. Head doesn't have opening game. Khawaja is also old, if both Warner and Khawaja retires back to back, they can't bring Puckovski and Wyllie immediately. You need Harris. Even Renshaw will do. It's high time, Marnus and Smith should score runs.
