Sadly the new rankings have placed Chris Woakes in 11th with a single ranking point keeping him behind Mark Craig, himself behind someone who is literally not allowed to be an allrounder at present, so a bit of poetic licence may make it work.

1. Ashwin 427
2. Shakib 384
3. Philander 275
3. Broad 275
5. Stokes 270
6. Moeen Ali 260
7. Jadeja 254
8. Starc 235
9. Hafeez 222
10. Craig 179
11. Woakes 178

Most of the above cricketers do not give me the allrounder feel. Is this the all-time weakest phase in test cricket in terms of allrounders?

Weird how the rankings seem to overly favor bowling "all rounders". Mathews not making the top 10 at all, behind Starc, Craig and Broad is a tad absurd.

Such a shame about Stokes, they can cope without him but the team is just so much more fun with him in it.

Hope Wood makes it for Edgbaston.

Wouldn't gamble on Wood and think Ball deserves another test on something that isn't the worst pitch in the country.

Now would be such a good time for a championship game for Finn, Wood and Ball to all make a shout to get the 4th seamer role

T20 season really just doesn't fit anywhere

That is quite a **** record though to be honest. Never got the big hype about it, most bats move up the order after a couple.

Just ignore the bloke with most runs on either side and more runs opening the batting than any other opener ever then.

Younis >> Cook

I won't give extra marks to Cook just because England is the spammer of test cricket. If Pakistan played as many test matches as England, Younis would score many more than Cook,

Your opinions on Cook are a moo point. Like a cow's opinion. They don't matter
