Says a lot about the quality of the squad that we could rotate our XI against Pakistan and South Africa.

100 for Buttler. Superb ODI player.

Can Jordan just fuck off back to county cricket already, not good enough for internationals

Never seen anything in Jordan to suggest he will ever make it in any international form. Great innings by England and Buttler in particular. South Africa going well, they are a very capable ODI side, scoring 400 odd in India just a few months back.

Be a runs heavy series this.

Morgan should take the blame as well - we have 6 bowlers so after them first two overs he should have been taken off.
Not sure why Jordan bats so high either, somebody in the setup must really like him.

Willey should have been in Jordan's place batting wise, a guy who opened the batting in county T20 behind Jordan and Rashid is stupid.

Great catch by Stokes to get rid of ABV and much needed too.

Chris Jordan really is a bag of shit. Great innings from De Kock though.

Well Ali (despite 2 wickets going over 8 an over) and Rashid aren't helping him so needs to mix it up.

He always comes good in his last few overs jordan. Although a straight swap for broad seems sensible. Ali strikes again its amazing how many wickets he gets for such a shit (maybe a bit harsh) average bowler.

Moeen was getting wickets and Rashid is economical in comparison to Jordan.

I'm not a huge Woakes fan but he has more variation than Jordan for sure, though of course Broad, Finn, Wood and Plunkett should be ahead of both.

Ali was over the rate at the time and Rashid was barely, not many would take the chance to let the batsmen settle against bowlers.

No I agree they were taken off at the right time but he could have carried on using Topley or brought Willey back for a few before reintroducing the spinners.

Was panning out to be a good match, nice to go 1-0 up but shame it had to be because of the rain.

No changes for England - Rabada in for South Africa.

Another great ODI victory - SA much stronger with Rabada and Abbott back but we were still too good.

Broad in for Jordan for the next match please.

McCullum with a typically fast paced 47 off 27 balls to end his ODI International career..

Kiwis will miss him but then have a few big hitters in their ranks.

Kind of disappointed to see England haven't changed their side again, get Jordan out of that team! Taylor unlucky really considering how well they've done, had we lost a game potentially he'd have come in somewhere.

Silly from England, a run out in under 6 overs where Roy was looking good.

Fabulous innings from Root. These last 7 over could be a lot if these two could stay in.

Oh - as I type it, a calamitous run out.
