The Sports Buff ⚽️ ⚾️ 🏈

England, coming into the fourth Test at Old Trafford, have made just one change. Liam Dawson is recalled to the side after an eight-year absence. The Hampshire all-rounder has arguably been one of the best bowlers in the County Championship for some years now.

Despite that, the 35-year-old was getting overlooked time and time again. With Shoaib Bashir’s broken finger, which was sustained in the third test, this has forced England’s hand, no pun intended.

With Liam Dawson, they’re getting a player who can use subtle variations, but England will get a bowler who is much more economical than Bashir. On the flip side, the 21-year-old Bashir’s height made him a potent threat for The Three Lions, despite his not-so-good economy.

Another plus side for the Hampshire man is that he’s a more than capable batsman too. The fourth test, if Manchester doesn’t do what it does best (rain), will start at 11:00 GMT.
