It actually raises an interesting point about the negative thinking in the England tactics. If Morgan played for any other country I have no doubt he would open in ODI. His unusual shots would allow him to make the most of fielding restictions at the start, but no. Not with England. He's a finisher apparantly.

Get a keeper in and drop Prior as he's been hopeless with the bat.

Sorry Morgan wouldn't open for any other size barring the minnows. His strength is innovation, doubt he'd be sweeping guys like Tait and Gul with the new ball

i would not open with him he is a finisher in my eyes he can be a nightmare and in ventive in the middle overs and clear the ropes at the end trott is a genuine opener/no.3 get him up there he can beat the infield if he wants as opens for us in t20 and got a stack load of runs other year

Morgan has been doing the middlesex nets. By all accounts his injury was not as bad as first feared so did not require surgury. Personally I think they should call him up, they wont need to play him Friday if he is not fit, so I would call him up and let him wean himself into the side.

if KP is injured and can take no further part then they must not bring in someone who isn't 100% ready and fully fit and ready to play, id love Morgan in the team but only if he is 100%.

He wont need to be 100% Im pretty sure a team of us could beat bangladesh. Pick PC in there to hold the place while Morgan makes sure he is 100% in time for the windies!

All confirmed now.

Swann up the order to open! Get us off to a good start and bring Bell in at 4. Pretty much keep the order flowing with Morgan at 5!
