Fairly easy to put an XI together this round give there are 10 players we want to get a look in at. Perhaps a few too many bowling options and the wicket keeping situation is obviously still open.

Whether Gibson can hold his place as a specialist keeper will perhaps come down to how strong the top order batting can perform, and he's also been placed in at 8, which may be a debatably higher position than expected however we want to see if he can make any sort of rough mark with the bat whereas those below him will be looking more to do so with the ball.

Next game we will be back up to a full squad of 15 rather than 13 I believe which will obviously lead to some tough decisions, we'll also have to keep an eye on the Kent game to see how our other 2 bats are going against the Aussies.

Lets get this series off to a good start .

Captain, I am a genuine number six batsman and I find offensive when I see you taking my slot.

And you can hook me with ball as I am second best player in the team.

Genuine number 6 you say ? Quite sure the example given for a specialist keeper was Michael Bates and I'm not 100% sure you fit the same profile of him if you're being honest . Hope you're understanding of where I've put you for this game given the amount of all rounders we have, feel privileged to be batting ahead of our bowling all rounders .

 

[swacker]

You missed the main part. I am experienced with a retire badge on my back. That makes me deserve the number six spot. (or higher)

Looking forward to playing against the Aussies in the warmup before the real thing starts! Hopefully the 90s are bettered this time round.

 

[Asham]

England the best

 

[Fenil]

Funny that we have proper batsmen till #10. We should've got more bowlers in the squad. I'm happy with my personal performance though.
