Assuming Andrew Strauss resigns the captaincy after the current Test and chooses not to tour this winter, my team for the first Test in Ahmedabad in November would be as follows:
- Alastair Cook*
- Joe Root
- Jonathan Trott
- Ian Bell
- James Taylor
- Jonny Bairstow
- Matt Priorâ€
- Stuart Broad
- Graeme Swann
- James Anderson
- Steven Finn
And the rest of the first-class squad:
- James Tredwell
- Graham Onions
- Eoin Morgan
- Tim Bresnan
Not 100% fit (mentally or physically) so not included: Ravi Bopara, Chris Tremlett
Unlucky: Monty Panesar, Chris Woakes, Samit Patel, Nick Compton
A bit boring and predictable for me, but I think that’s a testament to the good stuff coming from Andy Flower and Geoff Miller.
