Has Trott definitely declared for us? Obviously he's a de facto Pom as he's a UK passport holder & not classed as an overseas player @ Warwicks, but I haven't heard any announcements on his desire to play for England reported in the media. & I'm fairly sure Allenby hasn't done his residential qualification anyway, so he'd be a non-starter.
I still quite like the look of Prince's XI (even if Dimi has next to no chance) apart from Tremlett tho; I think he largely pissed on his chips after his timorous appearances down under in the winter.
Other possible bowling options not mentioned so far are Kirtley & (at a slight stretch) Tim Murtagh who's been doing rather well for Middlesex since he moved from Surrey and has played age group cricket for England previously.
