Good squad.

A good performance squad as well to use as cover. Hildreth and Kieswetter in that.

Why Monty?! Argh. Can't argue with the rest of the squad though. Definitely got the rest right. Would have preferred Rashid though!

Rashid not in either squad, surely he will be feeling pretty hard done by. Bopara is playing First Class cricket somewhere or other, would have thought he would have made himself available for either squad, bit selfish imo

Disappointed that Shahzad and Rashid have missed out to two guys that have been playing Div 2 cricket.

Yardy would provide more batting than monty when playing 2 spinners

Is Bresnan an international quality bowler??

Wheres the reverse swinger??

Broad, Finn and Tremlett too similar for me.

Adil Rashid where is he???

Yardy averages something ridiculous in Championship cricket

Tremlett's not a bad shout, been bowling well this year and he may suit Aussie conditions.

Bresnan - No

Panesar took over 50 wickets this summer and is a proper Test match bowler unlike Yardy

Yeah im happy with Monty, has a good test record to be fair. And he did well in Australia last time round.... but I doubt England will play 2 spinners the only way he will get a game is if Swann is injured.

I remember someone saying that there may be 1 test where 2 spinners are required.
