Whilst I agree that Finn might not be ready yet Bresnan is very average in english conditons let alone in Aus.

What about 2 spinners play rashid or im quite a fan of Shazad using reverse swink which is important which the Kook ball

I think the problem is, like they were saying on TMS yesterday,  we have 3 or 4 "possible" bowlers who could be taken on the tour but none of them are guaranteed a place.

Asif giving a little masterclass of line and length bowling........you dont need to bowl at 90+mph to be a dangerous fast bowler.

Chaos in Nottingham!! But it has given the Paks a route back into the game.

I would play Rashid soon, but I think he needs to spend more time bowling and isn't quite ready for an Ashes trip (also I am not sure Flower and Strauss like him) So perhaps a winter playing grade cricket would be good for Rashid.
I am a big fan of Shahzad, but am not sure he is quite ready either if he was fitter I would be considering playing him ahead of Anderson (sacrilege I know) as I think he would be more effective in Aus - Finn I think is ready and is class - as he will show later today.

Finn is class? He's managed to bully Bangladesh, Australia are a different league - more so in Australia.

Finn is going to be great in Aus - he bowls a great line and gets bounce (which is much harder to play than sideways movement) because he is about 15 ft tall.

The Bangers are irrelevant I agree

p.s. 6-23 this morning is terrible.

When you said "today" - I have assumed that you meant "in today's play"
I am not sure where else he will take a wicket - in the post play Ice Bath with SCJ Broad - I hope not!!!

back to this game, i think swan will take 5-6 wickets in this game maybe even 10 in the match, big turn and variable bounce plus its his home ground..... could be carnage!!
