Lets hope Henry Blofeld is enjoying his retirement by the time that comes around.

Still bothers me that Turdbach is in the T20 squad. Just get him the **** out of international cricket.

Regardless of his woes over the last year I'm not sold on the idea that Finn's a better Test bowler than Bresnan.

Don't see how you could come to any other conclusion based on the last few months. Is Finn as good as Bresnan per-injury? No, but he is quite obviously better right now.

Yeah, cricinfo said since his comeback Bresnan is averaging 55 with the ball, whereas pre it was 23.

Something clearly awry, just hope it isn't terminal.
