Why wasn't Root rested? I think he is the only person to not to have benefitted from the rotation policy.

He doesn't get picked in the T20 side

Neither did Broad, not did Anderson! They too, don't play in T20 leagues... They do not play ODIs as well, yet they get rested...

I think it's more a case of they get rotated for various reasons.

Anderson is... 39 years old. I do think he gets 'rested' a tad too much but this is a bloke who has been bowling since 2004, often bowls long spells and has previously had his fair share of injuries too. He also happens to be England's best test bowler on paper even now. I'd most definitely keep him well rested but I think he should be playing multiple games in a row if they are important ones.

We haven't got an important test match until the next Ashes, or maybe the next time we play India. Depends which happens first.

Looks like a treacherous wicket. Game could be over in two days.

Told ya.

Just a great start for us. Spectacular stuff.
