I still think in the absence of Ballance or any other guy that can secure the 3 berth that Burl could fill this role.
Ervine is best suited at 3 , need to find another opener imo

If we get 280, I think we've got the bowling to defend this. West Indies will be under pressure.
I don't see it with chatara in the side
I really believe they gambled on winning the toss.

Well he's done a great job opening so far. I'm sure he prefers 3 but he's dug his own grave there

If we get to 190/4 after 40, I'll be OK with it.

Can anyhow play Kaia ahead of Madhevere as an opener with Ervine dropping to 3...
And obviously Evans in for Chatara to get some lower order baytting as well.

Burl only goes down the ground with a big shot else he just dinks it round the corner. Doesn't like punching it in front of square.
