Personally, I am more interested in the ODI squad since that would most likely be the Champions Trophy one. So Mohammed Shami is finally returning to the international circuit after more than a year. Although in his worst format but a good chance to put forward his T20 credentials and improve his T20I reputation since we know he can bowl well in this format from the IPL. One player I am still not sold on is Washington Sundar. I just don't rate his batting for a middle/lower order hitter. And his bowling is economical but not something that is good enough alone to keep him in the side.
 
India will never dominate cricket like Australia did.
In the future, I can only see India succeeding through spin bowling and batting. India will never have an elite fast bowler who is injury-free, and respected over the world.

I agree. I also feel India will never have anyone who is respected over the world let alone in India.
 
Anyone watch this? I had the chance but it feels like a series India will cruise to victory in so hardly any point watching, from an England fan's perspective at least.

Wood bowls 150, Archer bowls 150, Atkinson bowls close to 150... and Jamie Overton has the anger that a true 150 bowler does I suppose? Man was one umpire away from decking Finn Allen this BBL
I've not see Atkinson bowl close to 140 since the start of the summer. JOverton, not sure how his pace was in BBL, but he seems to have a lost a little since his most recent injury.

I did and I wish I didn’t. Same old story we can’t play spin, missed chances etc. looked very lacklustre and meek which is not what we expected under Baz’s new leadership.

I guess they're feeling out what a good side looks like, although you'd think it's not really going to change. I'd probably prefer Mahmood over Atkinson right now. I don't know if they need both Livingstone and Bethell either, I do think trying to get Smith in the side instead of one of them might be better.
