No surprise to see wide ball Jennings has been dropped along with Rashid (seriously what a ridiculous choice for the first test).

Denly and Leach in.

Jennings has a lot of work to do on his technique. For a quickie at the moment he’s easy meat. Shame - and he’s by no means the first left handed opener to have this problem - because he does look a classy player at times.

Suspect Keaton may turn out like Graham Hick. A player who scores a lot of runs at Championship level but finds converting starts to good scores in tests beyond him. Could be good news for Lancashire though. Would we have stayed up with Jennings having a full season?

Not sure Denly is the answer but Jennings certainly isn’t. Get him back to Lancs. Might go with broad for Deidre instead of the extra spinner. Think denly is a part time spinner as well so probably no real need Ali, leach, root and denly. Especially as their equivalent of root took 8 wickets. Still stunned by that.

Considering pace did for us in the first innings (horses for courses and that) shame olly stone got injured. Sadly the only other quick who comes to mind is the perennially injured mark wood. Well until the ecb change the residency rules for Jofra archer.

Not one positive from this. Our batsmen look like they only know how to slog, not a defensive shot between them. So Ramprakash as the batting coach needs relieving of his duties. Clearly as good a coach as he was a test batsman. I appreciate Bayliss is leaving after the summer anyway but he’s probably taken England as far as he can. 

Suppose when the ECB continuously undermine county cricket in favour of McCricket this is what we end up producing. Sri Lanka probably papered over huge cracks.
