we keep getting bombarded with phrases like having bowling plans for each batsman, executing plans etc etc, but as someone watching it unfold on TV It looks like they just lose the plot as soon as they are put under pressure, and rather than bowling to any sort of plan end up all over the place to try and find something that works

Sometimes these bowling plans are the problem it doesn't allow bowlers to read a situation and apply their own intuition and knowledge that got them selected in the first place.

Morgan should be reading this situation and adapting to it, bowl the guy out if he is creating problems. When in test cricket at the start of a match do you take off a fit new ball bowler after 3 wickets in 5 overs? Its that mindset I dont like, at the time Woakes probably doesnt even need to bowl the last 5 overs well, India are in a shell mode against him and probably think lets play him out.

I'm guessing Moeen will open and Billings come in at seven.
