Do you reckon he'd still be behind Woakes, Barker and Wright in the Warwcks pecking order?

Well, for me, it's the right decision in as much as it's a waste of a space if Cook's not going to bowl him. Whether that should be criticised is a separate matter of course but yeah, once he wasn't using him in the ****ing 4th innings at the MCG then Monty had to go really.

Everyone in the top 7 bar Rogers is likely to smash him. Would be good. Then Cook won't bowl him either.

How is this any different to the norm?
Yeah he would for my money but not much behind Wright.

well he was born in Northern Ireland so there is a 95% chance he is a loyalist, then again do you think anyone follows the Ashes in Ireland?

I just think they're better with the new ball. Generally he's used to rough up the middle order and tail and get some reverse swing. England might want him to take the new ball for warwickshire but that would be to warwickshire's detriment.
Rankin bowls too short and doesn't get conventional swing to full exploit english conditions. Woakes and Barker will always take more first class wickets than rankin in english conditions.

Excited to see Rankin here.
Very, very surprised they dropped Root over Carbs. I know that Carbs has outscored him, but in 10/11 I really admired England for dropping Finn despite being the leading wicket taker, because it was easy to tell he wasn't bowling that well. Given the age difference and Carberry's last innings I was expecting them to make a similar call.

Fast bowler in not being as quick in tests as he is in ODI's shocker.
I have seen him bowl in plenty of red ball cricket. He bowls a lot quicker in that than with white ball normally.
