After all this time that he's been showing his ability, I still can't believe that Trotty isn't a nailed on cert for every ODI, don't understand what the stigma with him is. I'd personally have:

ODI

Cook (c)
Davies (w)
Trott
Bell
Morgan
Bairstow
Patel
Broad
Swann
Anderson
Finn

Bit risky having Anderson and Finn but they are quality ODI bowlers, just gotta trust the batsmen to deliver as they are both specialist 11s! Would definitely have Matt Prior back in the ODI and was always a fan of him but doesn't look like he gets a look in any more, Woakes could be considered if he was back fit

T20

Kieswetter (w)
RHB
Taylor
Bopara
Morgan
Buttler
Patel
Broad (c)
Swann
Dernbach
Finn

Bit stuck for ideas on a specifically T20 to be honest! So much more difficult to pick a team on consistent T20 form as it's so hit and miss

Bopara has had a decent run of form for England in the ODIs, and in great nick now.  He's also a very useful, underrated one day bowler, so although his batting average still isn't as high as Trott, he should - for my money - be a dead cert in both formats.  A little surprised only a couple of you guys seem to agree!

I'd love to see Buttler get another chance.  Carberry is knocking on the door as well but whether he could perform at international level is another question.

I do know someone who has played against Buttler and other County players, and when I asked him who was the hardest hitter of anyone he'd played against, Buttler was just about top of his list! Definite sore hands when fielding against him!! I'd love to see him given more f a chace too, but I'm sure his time will come!

Yer Jos hits it seriously hard, and its effortless how easy he can put his hands through the ball.   Having played against him a few times, I can second the sore hands!  Another good season or two and he will certainly feature.
