Bang average but such is the state of red ball, not much more choice.

I’m shocked butler is willing to go with just having a child, Australia government must have offered us some way of family going

 

[Jack Torrance]

As expected. Still think it’s pretty brave to only take Wood as your only fast bowler. The rest of the attack looks a bit one paced

 

[Johnap]

Not enough public school chaps in it for me...up school!

 

[HarrogateMackem]

Be lucky to win a session, let alone a game.

Yeah they'll be going. Australia is planning on opening its boarders next month anyway tbf.

Be interested to see who’s in the lions/ backup squad. Presumably Foakes, Carse, Sibley, Parkinson

 

[Dexter]

Dom Bess

 

[NorthCountryBoy]

Stokes not even on standby then

need to be as they deserved to be in the squad, if add Robson to that list with Mahmood.
squad is very safe, bland and players like buttler, bairstow, bess are lucky to be going

Stokes not even on standby then

Hoping he improves dramatically and ends up flying out

Dom Bess

Of course I mean what did Parkinson do this season except take 50 wickets

 

[mikemanc]

Stokes not even on standby then

He would have been in the squad or not, surely (even if they thought he'd only be fit for a couple of games)

 

[hudson88]

Dom Bess

Truly laughable selection

 

[Brett]

Who is to say he asked not to be included, think that’s probably likely

 

[Johnap]

Truly laughable selection

Sibley for me in any squad.

 

[Scotty 1978]

Bowling looks decent, take away Root from the batting and it’s shit

 

[Frankel]

No surprises then.

Be interesting to see the back up squad.

 

[mikemanc]

It is, I just meant if he was available he would have been in the squad, not the standby list

 

[Hettonlass]

How can the kids be out of school for a few months to go abroad. Families are staying in a resort all to themselves

 

[Steak Pie]

Sad to say, I think we're going to get slaughtered.

We're going to have to score 2500+ runs to be competitive and I don't see where they're coming from. Add to that a pretty one paced (Woody excepted) attack and I just don't see where we challenge them for full sessions, nevermind full days.

We were going to anyway tbh
