@MichaelVaughan What about Smith to open in place of Crawley, Bethell at 3, Pope at 6 @MichaelVaughan ? 🤔 or Bethell 6, Pope 3? Surely Crawley is the one to go, not Pope?

@MichaelVaughan Interesting shout from Vaughany! @CameronWest38, reckon Bethell’s got the temperament for no. 3? Big call over Pope, but love backing young talent. #ENGvIND
