Miss Anderson taking wickets for fun last time he was in the subcontinent?

Does Miss Anderson have fun giving away 54 runs for every wicket?

Edit: Didn't notice that you were referring to the subcontinent. Ignore this.

No, I don't think Sri Lanka is in the subcontinent actually. At least when England players do well in it it isn't.

No Woakes in the EPP. Hopefully he gets a winter somewhere.
Just posted in the NZ Domestic Thread - he's playing for Wellington between late November and January. 3 Plunket Shield games and the T20 comp.

An England win for the first test is paying $5 atm. Tempting, but probably unwise.

Sorry folks, I've been away from a computer for ten days or so. I've heard Pietersen is back in the England fold - does this mean he's going to India for the test series?

Um, pass.

He's been given a four month contract to "re-integrate", whatever the blue flip that means. He doesn't seem to have actually been added to the touring squad as of yet tho.

My personal guess is he'll play in the tests. Giving him a short-term contract (and presumably paying him cash money as a consequence) makes no sense otherwise.

If the answer to that were in keeping with the rest of the ridiculous soap opera it would be that it will be halved
