I hope they send Broad in first though if a wicket falls as he’s as likely to get a quick 30 as get out.

No point trying to plod to the win in one of these two goes early.
It’s Foakes not Woakes! I hope that Foakes keeps his wicket because that will help him keep his place as the team’s wicketkeeper. Also, Mick, glad you use the correct terminology, ‘batsmen’!
