Mackenzie
Old Brightonian
He should be playing, I think everyone can see it except the selectors.
England 200-4 (35.3 overs), plenty of overs to go, and wickets in hand... Stokes and Buttler at the crease...

Root drags on... 188-4 (33.3)
64 from 65 balls... and he is livid
Anyone else you would say a brilliant knock but he could/should have gone on to another Century.
Hey ho it brings Buttler to the crease, don't think he will be nudging singles once he has got his eye in...
Big wicket... Stokes gone
Uppercut down third man's throat for 48.
England 210-5-(37.3)

Buttler and Ali at the crease... but 300 is looking some way off.

Jos Buttler top edges his first boundary after 24 balls... England 250-6 (43 overs)
(actually the replay shows it came off his helmet - but it is runs in the book)

Rashid trapped in front, reviewing but it looked out to me. 10 from the over.... 260-7 (44)
Hitting 2/3rd's of the way up middle... review wasted
