I've always held Broad in far higher esteem than Jimmy "28 from an over" AndersonBroad always bowls well, he's my favorite English pacer since Headley.
On ouR side if we use a rotation policy on our quicks, whether that wise or not, people will be angry. The selectors will neeed to either pick all 4 or their best 3 and a spinner and stick to those selected unless they break down.
I'd hate to see your opinion on Stokes whose economy makes Anderson look like Hedley Verity.I've always held Broad in far higher esteem than Jimmy "28 from an over" Anderson
Wasn't a lot of that just cleaning up the tail?Stokes did pick up a 6fer in Sydney.
Stokes is a gun. All I remember of him was one day when he was reverse swinging it both ways a mile and was virtually unplayable. Might have been Sydney.I'd hate to see your opinion on Stokes whose economy makes Anderson look like Hedley Verity.
I'd give Wood Perth and Brisbane instead of Anderson.Some of them England bowlers are guaranteed to be knackered come Ashes. Wood is almost a certainty.
You have got to be ****ing kidding me???I'd give Wood Perth and Brisbane instead of Anderson.

I could happily see Hales in the squad. Not Buttler though. I gather he's taken the hint and signed up to the Bangladesh domestic 2020 league.Might as well just chuck Hales and Butler in the team on the basis that they might do something spectacular every now and then. Whatever happens during the rest of the summer there is no one amongst the current brand of failures who are likely to make runs in Australia.
His strike rate is more of a problem than his economy rate imo.Oh Stokes is certainly a wicket taker but his economy is ridiculous.
How many top 5 batsmen do you think we'll take? If it's only six of them, then maybe Hales gets the gig as he could conceivably do a job as spare middle order batsman or spare opener.Hales at 5 on the Aussie pitches may work. Then again Malan looks set for a score today against that great attack at Edgbaston so we may not give him a chance and be stuck with Malan.
