James Franklin just made an interesting comment re Vince: at county level teams worry about him in white ball cricket, in red ball they don’t as they knowbhe’ll Nick off!

If that’s the case at county level he has no hope st test! Although I think we all know that!

Let's hope the new selection process means the right people are consulted on selection. Asking the umpires was always a good move....obvious....but a good move

Vince does not get across his stumps enough so is a candidate for a nick behind all day long. Test class bowlers will just keep bowling it there

Wood's bowling is seriously below the required standards for Test cricket. With his supposed pace he should be blasting out someone like Boult, who battings like no one I've ever seen before

Something beautiful about boult’s batting. Makes every club cricketer smile

Vital runs here none the less from the position we were in

Yep, it's why I laughed when people wanted him to play during the Ashes because of his extra pace. Even if you ignore the injury problems, he hasn't bowled properly quick in ages

We got a lead of 29. I'll leave it at that and head to bed.

Cook's feet movement looks a bit better today.

Watching him against the Dukes ball could be hilarious

Cricinfo say it best - it's almost like he takes pride in giving it away.

I don't think that's enough for Vince. I see whoever gets off to a flyer, or maybe Livingstone if he starts well, getting a go over Vince. He's not the answer at 3 or 5.

He batted well I’m convinced he is not a number 3 but a couple will want early season form, livingstone and maybe Hameed .

Root should bat 3 thou and take it on...without the captaincy although England will not change that
