Bopara and Lewis are big mistake, Broad should have been in and we will now be screwed if Nixon gets injured in early in the tournament.

Yes Bopara was a shock

Yes Bopara was a shock

he got picked becasue he can bat in any position and bowl a bit

I thought they may have gone for Mal Loye instead, but hey, we'll just have to wait and see. The whole event should be brilliant anyway!

Look, I was born here, but support India. I dont support England in any sport.
Even if I was born in Gutamala I would still be an Indian supporter. It's just like going to any Italian cafe/Greek/Portugese/French restaurant anywhere in England or even the World (outside of their respective countries) etc and asking why they support their home country rather than the one they were born in. Sara if you dont want to follow your Dad's country that's your choice.

Exactly, he'd be perfect at seven with KP coming back in at four.

The team would be more balanced than when Dalrymple plays.

I like Dalrymple, he offers extra runs with the bat. He is only 25 and I reckon he will end up a bit like Colly, a recongnised one day player who won't make it in test cricket unless there are injuries to others.

I think he's decent and he's he's done well to score a few runs in the recent series. He'll probably play but I just get the feeling that other teams might take a look at our side and think that they only have to take 5 wickets and then it's the beginning of the end. He'd be good at eight though.

I just think with Nixon not being the best with the bat, the team would be a bit stronger with Bopara in it. He bowled really well against the Aussies on his debut and looked a great prospect. Time will tell

Dalrymple can't bat and can't bowl.

Don't know what his catching is like though

[Shaggy]

He can bat a bit.

Anyone see him in the final last week though? Bowling medium pace? What was all that about?!

[Red Chilli]

If he plays I'll be amazed if he averages over 20 with the bat and I'll be amazed if his economy rate with the ball is any better than 5 runs per over.
