Jason Roy can't get out for a duck in the 4th innings, if he isn't fit enough to bat!#TheAshes#Ashes19 pic.twitter.com/0ETLo7t94t

The above tweets prove that the fans were annoyed with Roy’s deteriorating performance in Ashes 2019. Roy has been bowled 5 times in 10 last Test innings. In the ongoing Ashes 2019, he has only scored 110 runs in 8 innings. His scores in 8 innings of Ashes 2019 read - 10, 28, 0, 2, 9, 8, 22 and 31.
Meanwhile, at the lunch of Day 5 of Ashes 2019, England vs Australia 4th Test, England are reeling at 87-4. The hosts need 296 more runs to win the match. Joe Denly (48*) is batting brilliantly, while Rory Burns and Joe Root were bowled on a duck. Ben Stokes, who single-handedly took England to victory in the 3rd Test, also lost his wicket cheaply to Pat Cummins at the score of just 1.
