Nope, probably not there, for memory during filming of "The Test" he mentioned struggling to watch matches that he should be playing in.

I have no opinion on it either way.

England left 15-20 runs out there last night, could that come back to bite them?

New ball does the trick.

Perhaps a bit of extra bounce?
