The Decline of Steve Smith in the Asha's Series

England have had to refine their style as they've gone through the series. Steve Smith hasn't had a great series aside from that one innings where he makes a hundred at Lords. Ben Stokes is doing one of the ridiculous things that Stokes has done across his career and it's such a high risk sort of style of play. Jack Leach and Ollie Pope, weirdly balanced England's team out. Moine Ali had to go up to number three. Then all of a sudden England have got all their bases covered,. albeit by also picking Johnny Besto's not their best Wikikeeper - which is a debate that's been had long and hard.
