Or non of those things and the manufactured outrage to the stumping at Lords was (as the Aussie papers are crying) a lot of whinging? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eN80TTaTloE

SPR Jul 2023 10:47am, 6 Jul 2023 41,408 posts	Quote Pin SPR Not going to get into the debate again but people can genuinely see things differently. It's not all just manufactured although I'm sure some of it is. I actually enjoyed the Australians' banter response to it all though.
Chrisull Jul 2023 10:55am, 6 Jul 2023 20,463 posts	Quote Pin Chrisull Hmm a weakish England batting lineup, chooses not to replace Pope - but brings in Woakes and Ali (both of whom CAN bat on a good day, but can be suspect against the Aussie quicks). But Wood for Anderson makes sense, and I'd rather have some first choice spin in the team.
