Moooeeen has played FC in Sri Lanka. So, he should be pretty familiar with the conditions, at least better than others

 

[McGarrett]

Taylor is trying to go big but can't connect

 

[McGarrett]

And of course.... Mendis came 'n made it all possible for Taylor

So you want him to score in every match? He's not a Bradman just so you know.

[McGarrett]

Right. Stokes needs to be dropped forever.

Stokes has done everything a cricketer of his skills could ever dream of doing - Test 100 and a 5-fer. He should retire from Cricket now 'n choose another career.

 

[Bilal7]

Stokes has done everything a cricketer of his skills could ever dream of doing - Test 100 and a 5-fer. He should retire from Cricket now 'n choose another career.

Agreed, lol. He's just a placeholder until Broad and Anderson come back.

 

[Jabo]

So you want him to score in every match? He's not a Bradman just so you know.

No... he is still doing a fine job and better than other players in his team, though he isn't consistant and I'm not just talking about this series
