offsite, someone told me none of the spinners are working and Bashir isn't the sole spin fail in the series, is that true?

The other spinners are allrounders though. Bashir has been taken as a pure spinner and if he can't do that, he is rendered useless while the others can contribute with the bat.

Siraj will surely need a rest at some time too though? We kinda take him for granted but he clocks some serious miles in these overseas Tests.

Siraj is in the side as the workhorse. Perhaps that's why he thrives in Bumrah's absence. Gets to be the strike bowler instead.

Siraj and Akashdeep are too important to be resting at this stage. Bumrah comes back in for Prasidh. I hope they bring in Kuldeep for NKR, but they might go with Sai or Jurel instead.

Assuming Jurel keeps, where do they hide Pant in the field? He looks like he's near enough 100% again but is he up to staying active in the field yet?

Though it doesn't look like Pant wants to give up the gloves, so we're more likely to see Jurel play as batsman instead. Which seems assbackward but eh.

I don't know what the general consensus is about DK - but I am liking him as a commentator. I think he has gotten lot better, and I enjoy listening to him.

Whatever it takes!!!
Who decided to put those two together, cheeky!
Haha Aaron is doing work for jio hotstar, the streaming guys who have the rights for this series in India. But they got Broady on for various commentary stints. They usually have one English commentator working from the ground and Varun along with host Rounak Kapoor commentating from the studio here somewhere. Broad and Aaron seem to get along well too, lol. Aaron is really well spoken, well rounded, thinks well about the game and has very modern outlook of the game as well. Been a wonderful voice to listen to this series.

They had Broad on with them for the first test, they had Jonathon Trott here at Edgbaston. Dunno whom they are getting at Lords.
