Think England have the line up badly wrong. Not sure why bairstow is not in the team after the way he won the final odi against nz almost singlehandedly. Ali is wasted at 7, should be in the top 5 ahead of stokes and butler. I know not was wise to rest him but root is missed at 3. Yesterday was not a 2 spinner pitch, Willey should have played ahead of rashid. Strange selections indeed.
Bairstow to replace the rested Buttler for the rest of the series.
Sad day for English cricket as Shane Watson announces retirement from test cricket. And no, you can't review it Shane.
Oz call in replacements:

Eng win toss and bat first..
Finn plays again. Willey doesn't get chosen again.. errr Morgan plays for for Middlesex.. Finn plays Middlesex.. sooo
Why cant any of them get to 3 figures....
stokes doing what he does best. eating up deliveries without scoring. 5 from 14 is pathetic.
what really annoys me James Taylor as never done much wrong for England.. yet he gets picked when someone else is rested..
Stokes hype is bigger than his attitude.. I keep hearing how good he is. he averages about 17 at odi cricket..
Excellent performance from 3 of the batters.. others need to stand up and be counted.
Stokes is becoming a myth these days.
Stokes and butler failing to live up to the hype....
Moeen is not a front line spinner.. why does he bat so low?? hes playing the bopara role.. when hes a better batter than the likes of Stokes and Baristow.. very strange.
good score.. 20 runs too short in my opinion
I'd say nearer 30/40 too short.
Dissapointed personally 200-2 after 31 overs. Very much so actually. Aussies will chase that.
Australia will come out and attack and it will be almost over by the 42nd over.. need early wickets..
good win by England. back in the series now.
Good win, I am surprised. The spinners bowled well. Little chance remaining of the series but still hope.
OP couldn't have been more wrong
