The next England opener

I would lob Trott to open , move KP to 3 and stick Stokes at 4

Some might say thats premature but i would definitley take him to India. There will bne tests where we play with 2 seamers and 2 spinners and will need a good batsman who can bowl some decent overs. I think he should be seriously considered.

left handed.

Tendulkar made his debut at 17 I believe.

If your good enough your old enough

3 hundreds in the cc, probably more than anyone else bar Benks and Tresco

Not bad, at least we can agree on the personnel
Dare I suggest moving Bell to 4?

Would agree 100%

Even if it's just for experience, I would take him. He seems to have 'it'.

As for the batting, leave Trott and Bell where they are. We stumbled upon a magic partnership in Cook/Trott and Bell has finally settled down and got runs. Leave them alone.
