If anyone else outside the squad was pushing for a batting place (Vince/Duckett) they'd have replaced Hales in the Caribbean. Quite unusual that they have just left the place vacant.

2016 England batting stats. Only Buttler had a better year than Hales. I know it's not your view Matt, and I saw you were arguing for Hales on The Guardian site.
So much knee jerking goes on on that site. Posters were talking Root out of the team. And there's a group mentality that being captain stops you from scoring runs when there's just no evidence for that at all. Even the normally sane hblove has been fighting a one man war against Morgan.
Aside from yourself, Silk and holdingahighline (who's a good shout for the best cricket writer on the Guardian) the site's pretty poor now in my opinion.
