Dawid Malan averages 43.19 with one century, 11 fifties and a strike-rate a fraction under 140 in T20 internationals. He is also the No 1-ranked T20 batter on the planet - and yet his place in the England side is under threat. Dallas sit 7-2 atop of the National Football Conference East with a three-game lead over the Eagles. The playoffs beckon, barring catastrophe and they could yet earn a first-round bye as the No 1 seed in light of a remaining schedule offering four favourable divisional matchups, a meeting with Trevor Siemian's New Orleans Saints, a home clash with the fluctuating Las Vegas Raiders and a Week 17 visit from the Cardinals. A Folk 32-yard field goal in the first quarter opened the scoring for the Patriots, while Jones then made it 10-0 to the visitors with a 19-yard scoring strike to Nelson Agholor on their next series. Maro Itoje and Jonny Hill start again in the second row, with skipper Lawes at blindside flanker, Sam Underhill at openside and Tom Curry once again at No 8.
