Not sure why the selectors are insisting on 4 seamers and unwilling to make some 'difficult' decisions!
We will be out by the time they decide to drop one of Jimmy, Broad, Woakes....
1. Halo
2. Bell
3. Taylor
4. Root
5. Mo
6. Morgan (6,7,8 interchangeable depending on game situation)
7. Ravi
8. Jos
9. Jordan
10. Finn
11. Tredwell
Ravi has to bowl his complement of overs. 5 Bowlers plus Root at a push.

I like this lineup. Very deep batting and some variety in the bowling. It's too bad England would never make such wholesale changes. I know that economy rates are no longer considered as important as strike rate, but our current four seam attack are getting hammered all over the park. We need at least one bowler to hold down an end to put some pressure on the batsman.

The sooner Saker goes, the better, in my opinion. I am struggling to think of any seam bowler that has improved under his reign.
