Ali will surely replace Stokes, remember the Lords test about this time last summer anyone?

Mo - 10/112
Dawson - even got 4 wickets! We played 2 spinners.

Other han injury how is woakes a step backwards in English conditions

Seriously man!
he's done nothing in an England test shirt for two years but regardless
England need to look to the future and  not keep selecting  nearly men having  selected Porter in the squad now theres an opportunity possibly no Stokes and England Are one nil up at home  England should play him

But you need to think about the batting part of it as well considering how crap our top order are at the moment.

Not really.. you should pick your best bowlers and then the top six (test cricket remember)should be good enough to post 400 consistently without relying on lower order hits. Unless of course you’re going to admit out top six aren’t out it ??

Woakes back in the team and odds on the team was as expected. Very surprised Malan has not been given another chance.

Don't know anything about Pope but I do agree if you can get a young promising player in then do it. The lad is highly rated and has got his runs in div 1

Smith comment ' Malan maybe best suited to overseas matches' has ended his test career straight away. He is mostly a back foot player hence doing well in Oz

But you cannot pick a player for one tour every couple of years. He won't play again.
seem a lot of comments about replacing Cook on the message boards on the BBC !!

I'd like one name to take a punt on to replace him, the fact is we still need his runs. He still has what it takes I reckon to get hundreds

But Stokes bats at 6.

Side I’d like to see

Cook
Jennings
Root
Pope
Bairstow
Buttler
Woakes/Ali
Curran
Rashid
Broad
Anderson


I reckon they may go

Cook
Jennings
Root
Ali
Bairstow
Buttler
Woakes
Curran
Rashid/Porter
Broad
Anderson


As despite our batting issues, we often look to get as many bowlers in as we can.

I reckon it will be the 1st side you have put down. Then pitch dependent Woakes or Ali will play. Why drop Malan for Pope if he isn't going to play.

I seriously doubt they would not select Pope and not play him.

Also I'm sure India will be delighted to see another 20 year old from Surrey. Strong Surrey = Strong England

Watched Kholis post match interview where he gave England credit for winning  and no excuses for losing he said India had had all the preparation time they needed but his batters need to work out how to play in The UK.

As @six and out mentioned above lords spun last time expect India to go in with 2 spinners maybe 3

I think Ali has a chance of playing but if that means Woakes misses out we could be left exposed. India play spin better than anyone

Tricky team selection I think coming up....

Jadeja must play surely it does not weaken their batting if he comes in.
