What does James Taylor have to do to get in. Skipper's A team and didn't look out of his depth against Steyn and morkel in 2012. Bell's had too many chances now and gets promoted to three crazy.

Good call, he chose a good time for a big score

It's easy to be overlooked when your that short, kp didn't help much in that respect

It's nonsense, personally I see a value in his height, imagine having him and broad batting rotating the strike, that must disrupt the bowlers length as much as a left/right combo would disrupt the line.

Having a slip cordon with bairstow and Taylor should improve the catching

Good spot!

Bairstow can score for fun in the county game but a MJ thunderbolt scared him half to death!

Cheer up mate
Should be over by lunch, the second crushing defeat in the series for the aussies hopefully by 10 wickets

Will onions get called up to replace Jimmy or is he another forgotten man in english cricket

Don't be so sure...They are throwing the bat at everything and without Jimmy we don't seem to have the power in our attack. That said, I am sure Finn and Broad are good enough to polish off the tail

...And having written that Neville is out caught behind!

After seeing Johnson tortured in those final overs I'm glad we let them get that lead

Happy to proven wrong on bell and finn, not so much on Lythe, if he makes it to trend bridge it's really last chance saloon

I rather like Graham Onions. He knows his stuff (sorry!). However, If Mat Woods is fit again I hope he gets his place back. Wonderful to see Finn in form again at last. Think we'll miss JA, though.

overcsast at trent bridge and jimmy would would of had another fiver+
onions would be good choice for line and length as stokes and finn can leak a few runs, I aint fussed either way as long as lyth is dumped, shame about him cos hes a good slip fielder but bairstow can take his place there
