I just noticed, as they weren't in the "Probable" Cricinfo line-up, Younis has a Knee injury, and Malik has a elbow injury.
 
I say lewsi over Mahmood simply because he's a better bowler. The gloucestershire captain, or someone who spent most of last year in lancashire 2nds?

Any news how much longer Anderson is out for?

Don't know an exact date, but he's out for the entire county season and maybe more. Just read on SSN that Asif is out of the first test, and the Hoggard injury is being further assessed tomorrow morning. Are England and Pakistan the most injury ravaged sports sides in the world?
 
I said what my team would be for this match a while back. Now the date is nearer, I've revised it.

My England Team

Marcus Trescothick
Alistair Cook
Andrew Strauss (Captain)
Ian Bell
Kevin Pietersen
Paul Collingwood
Geraint Jones
Liam Plunkett
Matthew Hoggard
Steve Harmison
Monty Panesar
 
Mine would be:

Marcus Trescothick
Andrew Strauss (c)
Ian Bell
Kevin Pietersen
Paul Collingwood
Jamie Dalrymple
Geraint Jones
Liam Plunkett
Matthew Hoggard
Steve Harmison
Monty Panesar

Thats of course if everyone is fit.
I would like to have Dalrymple there as batsmen who with bowl offspin and keep things tight from one end.
Monty has Jason Brown at the other end down at Northants so he would appreciate another spinner bowling intadome with him.

Jamie Dalrymple is out of the question. He's not in the squad.
 
RoboRocks said:
Yeah just read the squads.
They have dropped him out :(
He was never in the squad. Dalrymple and Chris Read were called for, but omitted.
 
Oh right sorry, damn Dalrymple for me would of been the best choice.
Certainly would of kept Read it after that hundred for England A
 
I hope Imran farhat bats with Salman butt tomorrow.
