    I think Foakes on current form (and actually playing) has a stronger case than the captain.....
    Brook and Pope will be undoubtedly - hopefully they will prove so this summer. Pope's average is poor for a player of his talent though. Brook's is of course ridiculous. I'm just naturally pessimistic when it comes to the cricket team

    It should be a cracking series, but yes, I fully expect us to mess it up.

    Ollie Robinson has to play, just dismissed Marnus Labuschagne for 1

    Arguably our most important player this summer - certainly bowler

    I think Wood has to stay fit as well. Do you risk playing Broad and Anderson?

    Yes but maybe not both. Wood and Robinson start the opener for me, with Anderson if fit. And Leach (for his batting)

    Sorry, I meant playing them both in the same test. Fingers crossed that Stokes can bowl. I assume he's not playing in order to get fully fit for the series, so he can bowl
