So many reasons to why we are a very poor batting test side. The structure of our domestic summer, playing a county game in the middle of the T20 offers no help whatsoever to batsmen. The team is full of ODI players, Root should be at four that's where he bats bests, Denly isn't up to standard. Roy should be lower down the order, Buttler can't or very rarely battle
Our batting since Bayliss came in has been very poor. When did we last score 400 in a test match?
