Yeah. He can top 90mph+ regularly as well. Just hope he doesn’t get the usual fast bowler stress fracture of the back.

Brook for Malan surely with Buttler at 3

Malan is only in for cover in the 50 over team, which is strange , hes the best best bowl anchor bat in the world for me.
His averages are up there with the best

The only thing I can think re: Brook is whether they’re a little worried about his ability to play spin on sub continental pitches.
If there’s one weakness he does have, it’s probably his playing of spin.
In the IPL he averaged 21 in 11 games. One game he did actually score a hundred. He averaged around 9 in the remaining games.
Malan isn’t a great player of spin either and Brook is the form man. That would be the obvious change as already mentioned.
The strength and depth in white ball cricket for England is unreal.

I think so too, but malans average in 50 over is 54 , the highest of any English player ever

If a stress fracture of the back isn't behind him then he's got big problemsHe‘s suffered with stress fractures before let’s hope they are behind him now.
