Oh come on - you cannot call him a definite pick based on 2 sets of bowling against very weak batting.
Well you call McGrath a certianty based on 2 innings against equally poor bowling...

From recent statements that I've read, it doesn't seem as though Fletcher is at all keen on recalling Thorpe, which is sad....for English cricket.

There's more places for batsmen, and other's aren't performing. All the bowlers have been bowling fairly well...

Robert Croft will NEVER play for England again...
If you can't take wickets for your county at a reasonable average (he still averages 31 in OD and 36 in 4D with the ball, 40+ in the last few years in FC), then you shouldn't even be considered for England. I'm still hoping Jason "Fish" Brown of Northants will find form again, he did rather well in the Twenty20 including a 5for :D

gr8 game for england. Solanki and TResco getting tonnes. solanki's was 106 off 108 balls. tresco's 114* came off 125 balls. Solanki got a deserving MOM. so i think that justifies his place somewhat. troughton got some runs, all be it 5 of them not out. good game for england and well played.
