Agree on Ali - but we can't pick Rashid either, can we? His shoulder issues have really impacted his googly & the speed that he can bowl his traditional leggy. Do you pick Dawson instead, perhaps? He will at least do a smart job of containing & will always be a threat on a dry pitch.

Archer in for Anderson if he gets through his Sussex 2nd XI game (poor second team cricketers having to face him) & Dawson for Ali, imo.
There was lateral movement in their first innings. ***** played and missed, played and missed - and made 144.

I would dearly love an explanation of how they applied caution with regard to Archer's injury, but failed to do the same with Anderson's. I'm not the only one. Sir Geoffrey was scathing about it on TMS.
