Cricket England Vs Pakistan

however having said that alot of the wickets have come from good balls, but Pietersen? no need to play at a wide ball on your first ball so that was very stupid

getting shit again in time for ashes good good

Don't worry for the ashes we will be saved by the shermenator

After the Ashes the need to be dropped list if they do not perform in Aus:

Pietersen
Cook
Collingwood

Cook may keep his place on a lack of other good openers in county cricket, some may want Michael 'can't play the pull shot' Carberry

Middle orders guys:

James Hildreth - averaging 68 or so, 5/6 100's this season (personal choice)
Andrew Gale - captained lions average in the 40's i think
Bopara - wouldnt want to see him back but he has his fans.

The problem with Hildreth is that Taunton is a notoriously flat wicket and a batters paradise,although that has improved this year I think seen as there have been more results there.

Bopara-Not sure he's the answer if I'm honest,don't think he has the temperment at Test Level.Flashes a lot at the ball outside off.

Gale-Haven't seen much of him if I'm honest.

I'd like to see James Taylor to be the next one in line,Unless they'd be willing to call up Steven Davies purely as a batsman and have Prior keep still.

Taunton is no longer the flat pitch it used to be, a new groundman this season has seen the ball seaming and spinning, also 2 of those hundreds came in away games.

Taylor is someone who i think England really need to take care of and not expose to test match cricket too early, give him a stint in the lions and see how he copes.
