England squad for First Test v Pakistan at Lords starting next Thursday
|
Cook (c) Hales Root Ballance Vince Bairstow Ali Woakes Broad Ball Finn Roland-Jones
Anderson has a stress fracture of the shoulder & Stokes isn't quite fit enough to bowl. Buttler not selected. Roy, Westley & Borthwick were also discussed as options. Root will bat at no. 3 which Cook conceded was 'quite an Australian thing to do'. Roland-Jones becomes the first TOBY selected in living memory

looking forward to this. i fail tebbits cricket test so 100% with pak. we have an EXPLOSIVE pace attack, good to see Amir back. batsmen also in good form albeit against weak bowling in the first 2 tour games. should be alot tighter than the sri lanka series especially if the weather stays dry, pitches harden.

Matty has a 'New England ' team tattooed on his arm that will win every Test match for the next 10 years. He won't post it on here though & he is working with the players day to day. This includes personally cutting off Tom Currans man-bun and paying for neck stretching surgery for his brother.

Voges is one of the greats.
Whether or not he was the 4th best batsman at Notts!

I know you know about cricket Matt and aren't a plum, but there's no point smashing a load of chumps around and then failing against every decent nation in games that matter because you have no technique.
Some players averages completely hide their true ability - see Adam voges for the best example of this.

It won't matter who opens soon, the answer is on the way.
We've had years of famine since Straussy and Tres. With Lyth and Root the best options.
Soon we'll forget. Soon we won't remember.

So Shane Warne was a failure as he failed against the only team who could play spin?
Thanks for confirming!

Like balance to succeed, but until he's played in India, pakistan and the lesser hemisphere again, his average is bollocks really.
West Indies are shit, India are shit away and Sri Lanka are in transition.
