This wicket at Trent Bridge hasn't been used this year, wonder how it will play. Jos Buttler has been called into the squad as cover for Matt Prior (thought he wasn't ready for test match cricket last month, Alistair? :lol:)

Expect Ali or Jordan to drop out for Stokes to come in with Root taking over the part time spinning role.

Cook
Robson
Ballance
Bell
Root
Stokes
Prior
Jordan
Broad
Plunkett
Anderson

It will be jordan or stokes only issue unless priors actually injured, amazing what difference a month makes re buttler.
 
I will be there tomorrow. Depend on it, despite the forecast, it will rain.....
 
A crazy long batting line up if Stokes plays (presumably at 7?) Broad at 9 and Plunkett at 10! We'll still probably struggle to get to 400.....
 
Morning folks. Looks like a sunny day with a little bit of cloud above. Pitch is very dry and has a few cracks on it.

Prior hasn't done much to justify his place given they rolled out the "Stokes isn't fit" dross when he wasn't selected for Sri Lanka series.

True but what was it that Cook rolled out about Buttler last month? "He's not ready fit Test cricket." A month down the line though, here he is.

I'm sick of Strauss's smug grin this morning and the sly little vague references to KP. He's like a kid in the playground who has got away with something without being caught.

Cook is the one not fit for test cricket based on recent tests.

Sky/ECB all corrupt, best thing to happen to KP was to get the sack
 
Dhoni wins the toss and bats first. Good start, Alistair. :lol:

England bowling,

Suns out, flat deck, could be 450/500 unless they get into them early.

With no spinner our seamers are going to be crippled this series.
