Tredwell is no better than Moeen really.

Could take Rashid instead.

Finn, Hales and Stokes have failed in this series, yet people are pushing them and not others.

Woakes and Jordan have performed better, IMO and therefore get first chance in the Aussie tri-nation tournament

Is my team of those who have done enough.

Anderson or another spinner. A middle order batsman and an opener are the vacant spots I feel.

I wouldn't take Cook, but I think it should be a management decision, like when the other players were dropped or rested.

I always like a couple of left-field squad picks too, like a seamer with no international experience (such as Brooks as an example) because it is a bit of an unknown to many players.

Different formats different game... but.


Hales and Morgan are in the big bash. That's a nice few games on Australian wickets to try and get some form and practice before the WC and tri series.


May have been wise to try get more of the england squad in the big bash.

Shamelessly stolen from another thread:

Freddie Flintoff - Brisbane Heat
Kevin Pietersen - Melbourne Stars
Luke Wright - Melbourne Stars
Eoin Morgan - Sydney Thunder
Michael Lumb - Sydney Sixers
Alex Hales - Hobart Hurricanes
Tim Bresnan - Hobart Hurricanes
Michael Carberry - Perth Scorchers

Those 8 would be a pretty good start for an ODI side though...

[joeljonno]

Those 8 alone would give our current 11 a run for its money.

Telegraph reporting cook sacked and Morgan replaces as captain.
Hales to open and ballance to be added to squad that toured Sri Lanka. 


So who's next for us and the press to get there teeth into for poor form? Morgan or hales??

[joeljonno]

Both out of touch badly.

I'd not given captaincy to Morgan.

Morgan's recent run of form hasnt been much better than Cook's! However if he is officially made skipper then he'll be guaranteed for a bit yet. He has done well with the bat when leading England so hopefully that continues.

Hopefully signals a shift in attitude towards ODI's in general with a bit more dyancism and less of picking people based on their test form

Root has practically no captaincy experience. I don't think a tough tri-series and a world cup in the position we are in is the best place to get a taste of international (or any really) captaincy really.

Morgan seems to perform when he's captain so a chance for him to regain form perhaps as well.
