West Indies in England

[Gunner786]

is it true tresco has pulled out of the windies tour too?

 

[evertonfan]

I'd say that given that there is no news coverage on it whatsoever, someone has been telling fibs to you.

is it true tresco has pulled out of the windies tour too?

it's in england

source?

 

[Stephen Bailey]

is it true tresco has pulled out of the windies tour too?

Given the squad hasn't even been selected yet, I don't see how he could've pulled out. But no, he hasn't said he is unavailable for the series. Not that I think he should be picked for this series anyway.

 

[PhilD123]

I would say I can't believe this, but I can. Looks like Vaughan will miss the first test and maybe the second.

Strauss as captain?

 

[Will_NA]

i think he's doing it on purpose

 

[Sureshot]

Flipping heck!

Well he won't be playing as the first test is only 13 days away.

So then my team would change too.....

Tres
Strauss
Cook (wonderful form)
KP
Bell
Prior
Flintoff
Harmison
Hoggard
Panesar
Who's the other bowler? I can't choose. I'll opt for Jimmy.

 

[King Pietersen]

Strauss as captain ftw, just hope freddie doesnt get it but its highly doubtful.

My team would be:
Tres
Strauss
Cook
KP
Bell
Collingwood
Prior
Flintoff
Harmison
Hoggard
Panesar

Sorted.

 

[evertonfan]

If Flintoff gets the captaincy the ECB are just completely stupid. No way should he get it after he was stripped of vice-captaincy.

 

[Sureshot]

The ECB may be stupid on some things, but I'm 99% sure that Fred won't be captain.

 

[Sureshot]

Moores new assistant is Andy Flower!

That's a great addition to the set up imo. Only 9 days now till the first test!

 

[wolf]

Assistant coach, batting coach, and keeper coach all in one. Fantastic news.

 

[evertonfan]

And he actually knows how to play one-day cricket too.

 

[BigCrickNan]

And Trescothick is currently murdering Northants on 140*

its great news for tresco! i cant wait to see him back in the England set up!

i would agree with king pietersen for the team for the first test with strauss captain and England to win quite comfortably
