Think we've got to re jig the top 4,they're too similar and are playing safety first cric

ket,if we haven't got kp i think i'd push bopara up to 4 and push down to 5/6 so we've at least got the chance of having on batter who can push the run rate up. that's no reflection on root it's just on good decks the real top players/teams will score a run a ball and we are'nt looking like doing that.
The top order are definitely leaving too much for the middle order to do,i'd imagine it's because there are 2 new balls (one from either end) in odi cricket now and they don't want to suddenly find themselves 3 down and playing catch-up,but with the current field restrictions we've got to start being more aggressive imo and take a chance in the first 20/25 overs.
A little worried about cook now ,as he's got in a few times now and got out again for 20/30 and normally if he gets in he he goes big,hopefully it's just a minor blip.
