    I believe the correct term is a shower of ****s. Though that tends to refer to somewhat larger groups.

    White thirty-somthing men and dancing. Just no.

    Hadn't realised Reeve had got a gig at ESPN too; extra glad Sky did their own studio stuff now.

    Nah! Actually cricket extra was pretty good, probably not sky good though.

    Indians can't bowl - Where has the rumour come from as I myself and many indian friends arwe competent fast bowlers ?

    With the English bid I said: Let us be brief. If you give back the Falkland Islands, which belong to us, you will get my vote. They then became sad and left

    Presumably he'll slot back into the side in place of Bairstow, who made 95 and 54 in his last Test - doesn't seem right somehow.

    At least he wasn't added to an existing squad of 16, that would have been (even more) farcical.

    Not convinced, myself. Still think we're more likely to see Bell or Trott opening than Root & obviously Taylor isn't touring, so there's potentially two free slots between 3-6.

    Cook*
    Trott
    Bell
    Pietersen
    Morgan (?)
    Bairstow

    is my guess.

    Surely he'll just replace Taylor, who isn't touring at all. Even if Root plays and Bell/Trott stay put, I don't think Morgan will suddenly come in to replace Bairstow for no apparent reason.

    I believe Morgan has been released from the squad. I'd open with Tortt and slot Compton in at 3. KP and Bell at 4 and 5, then I'd go with Patel or Bairstow, depending on whether they play Panesar or not.

    When KP returns he will be the banana..

    Morgan isn't showing in the Test squad now (was he there originally?). I'd forgotten about Taylor.
