Also if this doesn't cement Bumble's place as the greatest commentator of all time then God knows what will https://streamable.com/r4v4k

Bairstow's good at 7. But we're still only sure of 2 of our top 5.

I like the look of Westley's technique so I would personally give him a decent run at number 3.
But Jenning's technique has been shown up and we need to try someone else in there for WI tests.
Would still like to see Stoneman but I suspect they will aim to get Hameed in instead, even though his form has not been good this season.
Malan? He has only looked decent in the ODI where he was playing with freedom. I know some don't like Ballance particularly, but I would quite like to see him at 5 assuming he is back from injury?

So for WI I would love to see..
Cook
Stoneman / Hameed
Westley
Root
Ballance
Stokes
Bairstow
Ali
TRJ / Woakes
Broad
Anderson

Hameed , ball and woakes all back in action in the next couple of days. Similar I think England have Hameed as the long term opener whether they will put him in for the West Indies is a bit of a gamble I suppose but if he is test class sooner may be better.

We miss Woakes in the side and if ballance comes back at 5 Malan prob misses out ...if so he would not of had the run others have had

Be interesting to see if Hameed is brought back now, he has to play if we are taking him to the Australia....Farbrace hinted Jennings will have a break to work on things away from the test arena.....sounds like England rate him thou so may well be back..he would not be the first to find the step up harder after a few games in the side.

Jennings has to be done after this! 0 off 13 balls and dropped at slip! Nothing has changed!

Woakes will come back and be first choice when we tip up in the land of Aus.

Yes - but it has been good to find TRJ as a very decent player to include in the squad!
