Stokes for Trott
Bresnan for Tremlett
Bairstow for Prior
Monty for Swann

now these three, that is 7 in total from first game.

I forgot about tremlett, it seems so so long ago

But I saw swann-Monty-Borthwick, as one the one change to the regular line up.

It's called the pink Test because (for the McGrath Foundation, which I hope you've heard of) the entire SCG crowd on Day 3 turns up in pink to support breast cancer research.

From where I'm standing, you sound rather ignorant with that comment.

Really? From where I'm standing you have a breathtaking disregard for irony..........and fun.


Apology for massive-dickheadedness accepted :)

If that is true then I think it's a step backwards. Root is the future and carberry isn't at 33.

Interesting one this for me re Carberry. At 33 and in good shape physically Carberry could play for the next 3-4 years in the test team, which is a healthy chunk of time.
I'm not saying that he has proved himself worthy of playing for that long, and he may not. I just think that I would take 3-4 years of someone putting in solid, consistent performances. I think he deserves at least the home SL series to prove himself.

Twitter saying root is dropped with balance and borthwick in? Rumour or fact?

Rankin too by the looks of the coverage

Twitter say Root, BBC still suggest Carbs...

We may have been thrashed so far with little to suggest anything but again, yet this is actually exciting.

I think Carbs will play.

I think Carbs will be out. He isn't the future and it is time to throw Root into open if that is how they want to open tests from now on.

Shame Compton didn't come to show everyone how to play a defensive shot... #DigIn

Surely the Sky guys are close enough to the set up to know the situation. They seem pretty certain that Root is out.
