[Will_NA]

Ravi must bat before Flintoff so Fred can come in with the quicks back for their last spell

Yeah it should be (I mean the order)...

Vaughan
Strauss
KP
Collingwood
Bopara
Dalrymple
Flintoff
Nixon

Thats the batting obviously. To be honest, it depends what situation we're in, we'll be chasing, which I'm not too keen on as we tend to get the wobbles.

 

[Griffo]

bopara is at 3 and broad is playing

 

[aussie_ben91]

I'd keep Bell in the XI. His your best batsman out of Joyce, Strauss & Bell. Strauss seems incapable of scoring consistantly without Trescothick.

Give Bopara a shot at opening.

 

[WORLD CHAMPIONS]

bopara is at 3 and broad is playing

Both are quite good move

 

[Skater]

They've dropped Sajid Mahmood!! woooo!

 

[aussie_ben91]

I can Broad getting mauled by Lara & Gayle. His going to look like a child bowling to them.

 

[Will_NA]

lara is supposed to bat at six!?

 

[PhilD123]

They've dropped Sajid Mahmood!! woooo!

I'm fed up at the constant having a go at Saj Mahmood. He was our best bowler against Sri Lanka, bowled well against Bangladesh and is only young.

Mahmood has been dropped may be for Broad , any more chnage England have made

Sajid Mahmood pitches the ball short and wide too much when he plays for England and he gets punished because of this. In my opinion, he needs to play at least two full seasons of county cricket before he should even be considered for selection by England. Peter Moores will probably select him due to his age though.

Oh yeah because you get a 4-fer against Sri Lanka in a world cup game and 2 4-fer's in 8 tests if you're not ready. : The only way he can get better is by playing international cricket against top quality batsmen.

 

[Leicester Fox]

Wheres Broad I'm not a Mahmood fan as Phil knows Now Fletchers gone I can see Broad getting more of a chance anyway because Moores has spent a lot of time with him in the academy. Oh and say what you like about Broad but he would never have bowled this many wides to start off with. Oh and when i say wheres broad i mean to open the bowlign lol not that hes not playing

 

[PhilD123]

Yeah I think that, I think he'll get more of a chance.

To be honest I think Broad should have opened the bowling. Lee, I'm waiting for you to have a go at Plunkett now, horrid first over. :

 

[Skater]

I like Liam Plunkett. In my opinion, and in many others, Sajid Mahmood is useless.
