My main takeaway is that he travelled with the team, does he selected team as well as the squad.
If he is then I feel that a 'National Selector' on tour should have been taking those end of play press conferences instead of assistant coaches

This is exactly why my mum barged her way into the cockpit of every plane we ever got on.
She took down three air marshals last time, and then successfully landed a Boeing 747 on a French aircraft carrier which was on patrol in the South Pacific. Unfortunately the flight was meant to go to Luton.

See Mum all the time I spent gaming was to errr improve my eyesight..
Tom Kohler-Cadmore reckons he's improved since using a VR headset in his pre-match routine, specifically to train his eyes, since suffering a concussion at the 2022 PSL.
Concussion and eye function are linked - and data suggests both impact performance:

The consistency of selection Crawley enjoys is that they feel he has rare strengths but if they drop him there is no chance he’d ever be able to force he way back with weight of runs

A Test like this is such a selection confirmer because England could have picked 5 XIs and they'd have done well at home Vs Zimbabwe.
