Well, for a start AFAIK there's only 14 in the squad.

Shah?!

Snape ahead of Giles - you what?!

Clarke in, but no Irani? Clarke is very over-rated.

Finally, Smith is a joke, so don't go there.
Why not go the whole hog and select Leatherdale, Rhodes and Lampitt?

I wouldn't bother with the return - I'm hoping that a couple of them are just given one-way tickets.

OK, you can tell when you've got real dirge when English and Indian fans are completely agreed... Smith over Thorpe is one of the most stupid things I've ever heard.

What about this one?

Butcher
Ramprakash
Ward
Stewart
Thorpe
Brown
Clarke
Hollioake
Tudor
Ormond
Salisbury
Giddins
Batty
Carberry

:(! It's more likely then Ben Smith ever getting close...

And the rest of my points - someone who cannot get in the Gloucester side ahead of England's number one specialist slow bowler?

Giles our best spinner, we in Trouble arent we he is useless

I wouldn't say he's useless at all.

From round the wicket he looked quite good IMO in the 4th Test, and there's no-one else to chalenge him at the moment.

And that makes a difference how exactly?

The 2 are being compared as spin bowlers!

If we're going on batting ability, I propose that Vaughan is the best spinner n the world.

Wait.. Snape is a rabbit...

Or would be if Gillespie, McGrath etc. got near him...

Anyway, Vaughan's not the best spinner in the world, it's, um, Tendulkar.
