When Bell is in the ODI side he is a problem and we need to get rid, when he is out the side he is the answer to our problems and needs to come back in

Not a bad shout. But the batting still looks a little thin, can we get 300 plus with that line up?

A left field suggestion. Owais Shah? Was he given a proper run in the one day setup? iirc he looked alright and could hit a beefy six too.

He is our best Test batsman and a treat to watch. The one day game has raced on in the last few years and left the likes of Trott, Cook and Bell behind.

We need to go with the dynamic young bats such as Stokes, Hales, Bairstow and Buttler.

KP is our best test batsman if you are counting the saffers in the shake up.

The aforementioned are no better than the present lot.

Bell is the best in the test, KP is just the most destructive, and as to your last point, their strike rates wud b better, don't include cook in this argument tho.

Trott, Bell and Cook are not big hitters of the ball and their strike rates are woeful. They have also had a fair crack at the whip. And won us few if no games. The IPL and 20/20 cricket has made them look dinosaurs.

Why not give the young lads a good run with a few seasoned performers.
