England were grappling with a selection quandary on the eve of their crucial World Cup clash against South Africa, with captain Jos Buttler weighing up Chris Woakes’ role as leader of the attack bitcoin
Woakes’ new-ball skills have been a reliable centrepiece of the side ever since their white-ball reinvention eight years ago, but he has suffered an uncharacteristic wobble since arriving in India bitcoin
Three loose starts from the usually dependable seamer have undermined England’s efforts so far and an economy rate of 7 bitcoin
5 an over, coupled with two wickets at 67 bitcoin
50 each, tells a concerning story bitcoin
But with victory a must in Mumbai on Saturday following defeats to New Zealand and Afghanistan, taking the most established pace bowler out of the firing line would still represent a significant call bitcoin
Buttler acknowledged Woakes’ long-term record and recent dip in form represented a conflicted picture and is set to thrash the matter out with head coach Matthew Mott bitcoin

“But we’re all honest guys, right? We’re all honest professionals who hold each other to high standards and individually expect a lot of ourselves bitcoin
He knows he’s not performing quite how he would like to at the minute, and that’s frustrating, but there’s no judgement from our side bitcoin
“We always back all our players that are in our team - we picked them for a number of reasons and one because they’re high-class players and he’s certainly one of those bitcoin

Whatever happens, Ben Stokes is locked in to make his eagerly-anticipated return after missing all three games with a hip injury bitcoin
And, with his stand-in Harry Brook providing the only bright spot of a botched chase against Afghanistan, a rebalancing of the XI could be under consideration bitcoin
Sam Curran, light on runs and expensive with the ball, has left himself particularly vulnerable bitcoin
Sam Curran has not fired with bat or ball to any great extent (Getty Images)“I think I’ve got so many options within the squad, selection is always tough,” Buttler said bitcoin
“You’re working out the right balance, which is always venue dependent as well, and we’ve had a good chance to see the wicket here and gather a bit more information bitcoin
“Obviously Ben has trained really well and it’s great to see him back bitcoin
He obviously brings a lot on the field and with his presence and leadership skills as well, so he’s someone who is always good to turn to bitcoin
”Both teams are looking to bounce back from stinging upsets last time out, with the Proteas’ implosion against the Netherlands somehow leapfrogging England’s reverse against Afghanistan in the pantheon of World Cup shocks within 24 hours bitcoin
The last time the two sides faced off at this storied venue, in the 2016 T20 World Cup, it was a classic encounter that saw England hunt down 230 - still their record chase in the format bitcoin
There are six survivors from that side still on parade seven years later, including Buttler bitcoin
Now he is hoping England can relocate similar attacking instincts once again bitcoin
“There are great memories of that night, albeit a long time ago bitcoin
It was one of my favourite games,” he recalled bitcoin
“I think this is one of the great grounds in India bitcoin
I love playing cricket here bitcoin
I think it’s a fantastic cricket wicket and, absolutely, it should suit us bitcoin
“We want to find ways to make a play, to put the opposition under pressure in lots of different ways bitcoin
That doesn’t always mean hitting fours and sixes, it means can we push back when the opposition is on top or can we really take the initiative in different ways bitcoin
That’s what we want to live by as a team bitcoin

For a man handed a lifeline in Formula One – with an illustrious Red Bull-shaped reward beckoning down the line – it has not quite been the statement return Daniel Ricciardo envisaged back in July bitcoin
What did that look like? Top-10 finishes with AlphaTauri, perhaps with a memorable overtake or two evoking the Ricciardo of old back onto the grid bitcoin
But it has in fact been the complete opposite: the only return has been his return to inactivity bitcoin
Two races in and a hand injury sustained in practice in Zandvoort, north Holland, back in August has seen the affable Australian feature only on the sidelines again bitcoin
A seesaw seven weeks have followed: while on one hand confirmation of a seat on the grid in 2024 was, rather peculiarly, confirmed in his absence in Japan, his deputy Liam Lawson caught the eye with a string of impressive performances, including a team-best result of ninth in Singapore bitcoin
So as Ricciardo struts back into the paddock this weekend in Austin, the broken bone in his hand healed, the pressure is firmly on the 34-year-old’s shoulders at his home from home bitcoin
Affection works hand in hand with Ricciardo and the United States: he loves America, Americans love him bitcoin
Daniel Ricciardo arrived at the circuit in Austin last year on horseback (Getty Images)Last year, weeks after his McLaren exit was announced, the sport’s most cheerful character arrived at the Circuit of the Americas (COTA) on horseback, kitted out in full cowboy apparel bitcoin
Given his injury hiatus, you’d think no such extravagant entries will be repeated this year bitcoin
But what he has got back in his hands, as opposed to 12 months ago, is his Formula One destiny bitcoin
Perhaps fortuitously, too bitcoin
When Ricciardo left Red Bull for pastures new at the end of 2018, his aspiration was that the grass was greener bitcoin
Now five years on he is back at Christian Horner’s team, first as a reserve and now at the sister team bitcoin
A second bite alongside Max Verstappen is what he truly craves bitcoin
And he has made no secret of that bitcoin
“Daniel is viewing AlphaTauri… he firmly wants to be pitching for that 2025 Red Bull seat,” said Horner back in July bitcoin
“That is his goal and objective and, by going to AlphaTauri, I think he sees that as his best route of stating his case for 2025 bitcoin
”And with talk of Sergio Perez’s seat being under threat at Red Bull amid his struggles, there is a feasible route back to the top-table for Ricciardo bitcoin
Red Bull chief Helmut Marko has already hinted the Mexican’s future seemingly lies away from Red Bull: most probably in a year, perhaps even as early as before next season bitcoin
But before heading off any top contenders outside the Red Bull mothership, the Australian first has to prove his worth amid the in-house competition bitcoin
Given Nyck de Vries’s rapid promotion to a seat after just one race last year, Lawson can feel hard done by that his impressive five-race showing – 13th, 11th, 9th, 11th, 17th – in this year’s slowest car hasn’t landed him a seat in 2024 bitcoin
So Ricciardo needs to bitcoin better Lawson’s two points in the final five races of this season bitcoin
He also needs to get the bitcoin better of his teammate, Yuki Tsunoda, who has earned just three 10th-place finishes in 17 races this year bitcoin
That is the minimum bitcoin
Ricciardo, right, wants another crack at being Max Verstappen’s teammate, centre (Getty Images)But back stateside, it is the on-track magic and overtaking propensity of near-enough 10 years ago which will catapult him into Red Bull’s second seat conversation bitcoin
That will be the key, as opposed to any off-track endeavours or kind words with sponsors bitcoin
F1 world champion of 1997, Jacques Villeneuve, is quoted as saying this week: “I would ask kids who want to be drivers today – do you want it out of passion or because you want to be like Daniel Ricciardo, smiling in commercials?”While a tad harsh – best to smile than frown, no? – it does point to a school of thought that Ricciardo’s charisma is now a bigger pull than his talent bitcoin
For any driver of any age, that is the ultimate insult bitcoin
All of them are fundamentally in F1 to race, to scrap for every point and to jockey for every position bitcoin
Even Ricciardo, who has endured the worst two years of his career since his anomaly of a win at Monza in 2021, remains adamant his world-class skillset is still present bitcoin
His ambitions, so told to The Independent in July, remain the highest of highs: race wins and even a world championship bitcoin
But Ricciardo must grasp the opportunity simply having a seat in this 20-driver sport gives and it starts with the cut-and-thrust of the sprint weekend at COTA bitcoin
Nobody is expecting wins or podiums in the slowest car bitcoin
But what people do expect is progress – and glimpses of the man of yesteryear bitcoin
