Trott looks good enough for No3 imo, he has a touch of the Boycotts about him !! i.e. doesn't give his wicket cheaply.

Cook aka "Nudger" can stay but needs some batting coaching.

I guess they'll stick with Bell for now, but only just. If Bopara goes to SA it will be interesting to see how he goes, fails again it probably over for him whatever Goochie might think lol.

Collingwood is probably looking over his shoulder the most, he's getting on a bit and the big scores are drying up, a touch of the Husseys there.

Those that are safe ?

Strauss
Swann
Prior
Trott
KP
Broad
Anderson

Cant see them making too many changes for the SA tour though.

Found it.... although the quality is poor. You have to have the sound up for it. I don't mind admitting when I saw this on Sky I got a bit of a semi on!

Red face Another one bites the dust...

So the England cricket team's bizarre fascination with practising football, rather than the cricket that they're actually paid for, has claimed yet another injury victim.

BBC SPORT | Cricket | England | England suffer Denly injury scare

Here's the footballing injury list from the last year or so:

James Anderson: March 2008
Ian Bell: July 2009
Matt Prior: August 2009
Joe Denly: September 2009

Once is unfortunate, twice is silly, three times is ridiculous, and four times? Well that's just a disgrace.

Perhaps they should get Fabio Capello down to their training?

If they were any good at football they wouldn't have become crickets.... simple as that. 90 mins running around then to the bar before a good roasting session with a bevy of page 3 slags or stand in a field all day uttering the words... "booooooooooooowwwlllling Broady!!"
