Looks promising.
Jacks is a surprise addition

Do you think? I spy at least three who won't last the entire series.

Archer, Bashir and Wood would be my guesses for that.

We also need cover should Stokes not last. I think they will play Archer and Wood in the first then rotate. The spinner won’t play in all either as they don’t have a good record over there. Brook as vice and Pope will be in at no3 (or Bethell) but Pope will be reserve keeper. Potts is there to soak up loads of overs where necessary. Our first choice team of Archer, Wood and Stokes is strong in my view, but how much they play together remains to be seen.
