Root is still there and looks to be back in form. Stokes has been their best batsman so far in the series and he can go with him. Then they have a long batting lineup still to come. Their number 10 averages 20 with a test ton. Bairstow/Buttler/Woakes/Archer/Broad are all capable of 30+ runs with one of Root or Stokes on the other end.
It is a 50-50 proposition at best. If Root and Stokes both get their eye in tonight then money would be on England.
This loss is on every merkin, not just Paine
