He's a good bowler and a great find, don;t get me wrong

Its just that Stokes is the one of our bowlers who occasionally can work up a real head of steam and bowl some quicker "heavy ball" type stuff. With him not bowling we perhaps could have done with another fast bowling option in the side. Curran is looking tidy but wasn;t that threatening in his first spell.

Perhaps with the way Curran has batted they will think differently in the future.

Braio trying hard here. We could really do with Anderson having one of his magic spells and as Dubs says Moeen getiting a few because its spinning so Ashwin going to be a real handful.

- If Mo can get his line right, he could get a few. Other that, perhaps a run out? (n/m) (Other Sports) - DrDublin, Aug 31, 14:01:27
