Jason Roy is often called 'The Lion' by his English teammates, which is understandable given his audacious batting style in the limited-overs format of the game. The Surrey man's best quality is his courage - the courage that makes him a fearsome top-order batsman and helps him dominate even the fiercest of bowling attacks in the world.

Roy's magnificent run in the ICC World Cup 2019 led to his call-up to the Test squad. England have long struggled with their opening partnership, and after the retirement of Alastair Cook, the void has seemed even bigger. English fans had hoped the void would diminish upon Roy's arrival, but the story has unfolded in a disappointing manner.

Roy's struggles with the moving red ball at the top are pretty evident as the Englishman has failed to create any sort of magic against Australia in the ongoing Ashes series. That has led to him dropping down the order to number 4, with Joe Denly opening instead of him.
