I'll be amazed if they do this easily. Not out of any particular faith in our attack but the Windies batting lineup isn't that good. Fwiw I agree re Robson, but I'm just saying I'd LIKE them to have, not saying they will do. Agree with Compton as well. I've said it many times, Moeen Ali is a good bloke, good batsman and a great player to have around, but he is NOT and never will be a front line spinner for a top test team. The sooner England drop this silly pretence the better. The problem then arises that no one in County Cricket is jumping out as a great spinner either... Yeah think England just don't trust their other spinners to the point they've gone for someone with good batting. Helps that he did well against India. Also, Chris Jordan is immense in the slips. Gets 1 or 2 extra wickets off spin that very few would.

Said it after getting knocked out by Bangladesh, but now they've failed to beat the 8th ranked side in a series it's pretty clear Moores should be gone.

Peter Moores is gone, that's a start. Shame Strauss is a director for the ECB now, basically negates any chance of KP coming back.

First game of the season yesterday, either broken or very badly bruised one of my fingers making a diving stop. What a great start to the season.
Today's game could be agony.

What is an absolutely sublime innings by KP that sends a real message to the new people in charge of the ECB is made slightly less pleasant by the fact that Piers Morgan is currently wanking himself into a coma.

Supposedly KP had a meeting with Strauss after the match. Could see him getting into the side against NZ, he fucks up then ECB can use that as excuse not to bring him into ashes, he wins then they may have a chance at the Ashes (of not getting blown away)

Telegraph denying it was said now. Tomorrow's interview with Strauss will be very interesting.

If he isnt put back into the side then the ECB owe him £250k. They told him to go and score runs at county level, he scores 300 not out in 1 innings. No other player in the England side can do that in 1 day.
