Oh wow, England are playing cricket. I'd forgotten. Also Samuels was never actually that good.

Out for the third time to a marginal decision - something to cheer Stokes up at least.

by David Taylor 9/27/2017 12:04:01 PM
Samuels hasn't had the best of comebacks has he

Which Leach? There's a right and a wrong answer :P

by Duluth K. Archaeopteryx 9/27/2017 11:58:08 AM
I wanted to put in Leach, Foakes, Patel and COverton but they just missed the cut

if I was just picking England players I'd have Cook in for Sanga, Archer (or Coad if he doesn't count) for Abbott and Leach in for Harmer

by Will Colwell 9/27/2017 11:56:15 AM

Craig over Archer is a completely unfair and biased pick, for what it's worth

by Will Colwell 9/27/2017 11:53:05 AM
Very similar -http://bbc.in/2ysNG0O

Genuinely tough. My first go was Cook/Stoneman/Northeast/Kumar/Ballance/Foakes/Stevens/Archer/Abbott/Porter/Harmer but then I realised I'd left out all my favourite Somerset players...
