Ass isn't filtered, but trying to avoid the filter ain't a good idea.
And our ODI squad is indeed bad - so why make things even worse by bringing back Strauss and Vaughan?

Unless, that is, Hoggard and Flintoff were to return...

You could also say the same about Shah, Masceranhas, Yardy and Cook.

Richard, I was wondering if you could tell me how you get to write match reports.

Mascarenhas seems like a good fielder from what I've heard, fast and athletic.
I'd happily get rid of the others tho. Whoever England pick their bowling is going to be erratic and their batting will be crappy. I'd like to see England just pick a side that is a really top notch all round fielding unit and start from there, something to base their side on and know they can compete with anyone on.
So you'd get a full strength side like this:
Trescothick
Bell
Bopara
KP
Flintoff
Collingwood
Dalrymple
Nixon/Read
Mascarenhas
Plunkett
Anderson
Can't think of reserves off the top of my head.

Well I don't remember him ****ing anything up when listening to the games on the radio and Cricinfo says "he is an excellent fielder" but then Cricinfo also have him down as fast-medium.You obviously haven't seen him...

Agree with this completely, Dalrymple over Yardy anyday.

We're of the same mind, Scales. As for reserves; Trott is the only name that comes to mind right now since he's an unproven quantity (in ODI's at least). Also Shah, given he's been alright in the last few games.

A full strength odi team imo should be...
Marcus Trescothick
Ian Bell
Ravi Bopara
Kevin Pietersen
Paul Collingwood
Andrew Flintoff
Matt Prior
Dmitri Masceranhas
Jon Lewis
Monty Panesar
James Anderson
Marcus Trescothick
Ian Bell

West indies deserved to win - and England have a lot to think about in the middle overs. WI have Fidel Edwards - a wicket-taker - to bowl there and we have Mascarenas and Collingwood (who aren't). So of course the Windies get to the last 10 overs with wickets in hand - and we don't. When will our selectors learn that no batsman can score at any rate when he is out? It is all very well trying to contain batsmen but if good/great players stays in he will score runs. Looks like back to the drawing board again....
