    Whoever is the highest England-qualified player in the averages who currently isn't in the Test squad should get his chance.

    Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.



    May the Lord bless this post.

      Compton could get a go. Not seen him play but the ESPN boys rave about him. Really solid technique apparently.

        Too old surely. And too dead.

              We might not need to start our new opener in India if we play 5 batsmen and just move everyone up the order and play Prior at 6. We could do that and play Monty or Patel. Monty is a rabbit and Patel isn't a test quality batsmen so we would be considerably weakened, but we'll need two spinners over there and given the situation this appears to be a good way to do that. If we go down that rout it will be imperative to get KP back in the side to strengthen the batting:

              Cook
              Trott
              Bell
              KP
              Bairstow
              Prior
              Broad
              Swann
              Anderson
              Finn
              Monty

              It's a short batting lineup which could mean Patel getting the nod ahead of Monty and batting at number 7.

                Very short batting line-up.

                  Is height important?

                    I dunno Shaggy. Prior and Broad can bat pretty well, and when on form can cruise to a ton. It's more worrying about the middle order ones. Especially if KP isn't back. Bairstow is inexperienced too. I like what Foggy suggests though.

                      I get that, they can get valuable runs but their primary function isn't to score runs. And any team with Jimmy Anderson coming in to bat at number 9 is struggling in the batting department.
