and there's no way Smith would bat below Anderson and Mahmood...

He'll be 35...You really think Trescothick will be around in 2011?.
Assuming he makes a good comeback i.e. is over his illness I'd say yes.

That's probably the most sentiment we've ever shared TBH.

The big reason Panesar should not play ODIs is not merely because it's patently obvious he's not currently good enough but that you'd have to be a complete fool to think there's no chance of this affecting his Test bowling. I was pleased they managed to keep him out for as long as they did but it was almost inevitable they were going to fall eventually.
The problem is not merely that he hasn't managed to work-out what he needs to do in ODIs - it's that people are saying "bowl like you do in Tests" but that's patently not going to work; then instead he's going to be bowling like he has in the ODIs in the Tests, which is going to make him lesser in both.
Right now, I'd not be unhappy to see him completely excluded from all limited-overs cricket. Just play First-Class stuff for Northants and Tests.
Dave - Newman has been shifted down the order and that's damaged his prospects? Come on! You should've spotted that he was shifted down because he'd been doing nothing at all as an opener in the shorter game.
I've never really seen him bat but I can't help wondering if he's going to be the next Strauss TBH.
And as for Loye - no point, at all. Makes no sense to pick him now, his time has gone.

It is a shame that Mal Loye is not in the provisional squad of 25. And it is really puzzling to see Trescothick , Simon Jones just walking into the side as if it were their right.
My ODI XI would be
Mal Loye
Benning
I Bell
Pietersen
Collingwood
I Blackwell
P Nixon
S Broad
J Snape
C Tremlett
J Lewis

No Flintoff?

Yes done on purpose rather than a slip up. He is totally out of form and needs break. He can be "rested" for atleast one series, if i were to take a cue from the indian selection chairmans' words.

Benning

Blackwell?.

yeah 24 wickets at 36 with an econ rate of 4.27, he's been garbage hasn't he?Blackwell?.
he's no world beater, but he's done a solid enough job for england in odi's and i'd rather he were there than panesar.

batty, ball, middlebrook, udal ,dalrymple and yardy were about as good as it got in limited overs domestic cricket last year for spinners. sadly we are hardly spoilt for choice.

Well Ball's retired now, Udal's no longer a viable option (was strange indeed that he played 1 ODI on the Pakistan tour 
) and Dalrymple and Yardy are more batsmen.
Batty, of course, has been tried and is clearly nowhere near good enough and I'm less than convinced after the Middlebrook Saga. So I'd prefer him not to be let near the side.
TBH, though, Yardy and Blackwell both have excellent bowling figures to date.
