I watched the highlights earlier, and was stunned at how technically bad the shots were that the so-called frontline batsmen got out playing. At what point do the selectors give up on Crawley ? One big knock aside, he averages just over 18 in test cricket, which is less than Stuart Broad. Maybe Crawley should bat at #10 ? Thank heavens Bairstow and Wood were on their game, and Stokes also did well, albeit with a healthy dose of very good luck.
