Round 2 of 3 in the T20s can't see england making any changes after such a brilliant performance last time out , whilst the speed and variation of Mills was impressive it was interesting to see Katie up his pace to over 90mph , i think he managed 92mph at one point , honestly didn't realise he was that quick unless it's just a recent thing , if he can hurry the batsman like he did last week he will take shed loads of wickets this domestic season coming up .

I think I'm right in saying due to injury Mills can only play T20, sad as he is lightening quick.

England have a great side on all forms on One Day cricket just lack a quality slow bowler.

Yep Mills himself said he's not really interested in any other format other than T20 due to previous injuries , he has such a superb mix of deliveries i think it was Jayawardene that said he was one of the most difficult bowlers to pick what he was bowling that he had ever faced ! praise indeed , hopefully he will stay injury free and we will see him ripping the stumps out of the ground a few times in the summer .

There's an argument that even if he can only bowl say 5 overs, Mills should be included in the ODI squad. Without Mark Wood we don't have anyone with genuine pace and it's definitely a weak point in a strong team. Having said that, I didn't realise Jordan was getting up to those sort of speeds as I missed most of the first T20 game. Looking forward to this one.

Dry, dusty, no grass pitch. Balanced bowling choice by England. On a spinning track be good to see some early inroads by our Sussex speed merchants.

Mills has said that even fielding for 50 overs would be difficult for him. And there is also the problem of having to make up the other 5 overs from the rest of the team, you would need 6 capable bowlers as well as someone else to cover in case of injury so only 3 players in for batting alone.

4 consecutive dot balls to Yuvraj is no mean feat. Well done Moheen 1 off the over.

Clearly a spinners wicket - perhaps the best tactic is to charge down the wicket and give it some numpty before it pitches?

How unlucky was that from Stokes. Hit the wicket but bails just settled back into place!

Good point what is Dhoni doing on the bench waiting to come in? Be happy if he doesn't come in and Pandey takes the strike off Rahul.
