The "innocent" party speaks out:

I liked Anderson for coming out and saying this. I haven't seen the incident, did Anderson complain when it was said?

No one complained except the media as far as I saw.

Anyone feeling confident about predicting the Eng lineup for this test? I fancy the following:

Cook
carberry
root
kp
bell
Prior
Bresnan
Broad
Swann
Anderson
monty

Cook
Carbs
Root
KP
Bell
Ron Weasley
Prior
Bresnan
The Tall Medium Pace Bowler from England
Swanny
Armgate

Although the selectors may think that Gary gives better Ballance to the side than Ron.
Not sure if it will be Bairstow or Ballance, the rest I think will be who I posted above.

I reckon England will be boring and go with...

Cook
Carbs
Bell
KP
Root
Bairstow
Prior
Bresi-lad
Broad
Swann
Anderson

Seems like the pitch is very dry so twin spin to come? Stokes at 6 would seem a real gamble though

[tim2000s]

Twin spin leaves you when the horrible dilemma of five bowlers or six batsmen. On the batter's current form, and flower's past record, we will play four bowlers and Monty won't be one of them...

Matt Prior has not scored a fifty since he signed with Spartan. Aussie conspiracy?

When the batsmen are struggling Monty is one of the last people you'd bring into a side (no disrespect to the bloke)

He did make an unbeaten hundred though...

Let's be fair though none of the team looks like scoring runs at the moment

Sky reporting that Panesar and Stokes will play.

[mo_town]

Wow!! That was my guess!!
