Leach for Ali.
Foakes for Bairstow
Archer for Anderson
only 4 players came out of the first test with credibility for me: Burns, Woakes, Stokes and Broad. Everyone else was absolutely pathetic.

TRJ's FC average is 22 so not awful and he's got a first class ton...
Sibley/Crawley versus Woakes/Curran: it's a crap shoot. There's no certainty that two kids on debut at Lords with nerves a-plenty would get more runs than two established players who have already scored international runs. What you wouldn't get from the first two are any overs with the ball. If its wet over London in the run up to Lords, then it'll be a battle of the bowlers and we have nobody fit outside of Curran who is an out and out swing bowler. Weather forecast is fairly shit for the Wednesday, alas...
I'd swap Denly and Roy around. It may well be moving deckchairs on the Titanic, but there just aren't the openers available.

i wonder if Foakes will end up like Chris Read. Undoubtedly the best gloveman in the country, consistently overlooked by England. Retires at 37-38 with a handful of tests to his name.

So, what I'll do is, sneak into the dressing rooms early on Wednesday morning and swap Steve Smith and Moeen Ali's kits over so Smudgy will come out as No.3 batsman for England in Moeen's kit. We'll pop the lyrics to God Same The Queen in his trouser pocket so he can mumble along to the national anthem and give Moeen the lyrics to Waltzing Matilda or whatever the Aussie anthem is.
No-one will be any the wiser and Smudger will bang out a couple of hundred runs for England. All I need in an egg and bacon tie, a blue shirt and a straw boater and slip into Lords early doors, swap the kits then sit back with a few glasses of champers chatting to John Major, Mick Jagger and Stephe Fry (who all live at the Lords Pavilion) and Bob's your uncle.
Lords own alcohol policy:
"Lord's is the only international cricket venue in the world where spectators can bring alcohol into the ground. A spectator may bring alcoholic drinks into the Ground in one of the following descriptions and quantities:
(i) one bottle of wine or Champagne (max. 750ml); or (ii) two cans/bottles of beer/cider (max. 500ml each); or (iii) two cans of premixed aperitifs (max. 330ml each).
Bottles of spirits or fortified wines will not be allowed into the Ground. Amounts of alcohol in excess of these limits and any alcohol in excess of these limits will be confiscated. Under no circumstances will any spectator be re-admitted to the Ground at any time during the day if he or she is in possession of any alcohol. M.C.C. reserves the right to confiscate any quantity of alcohol from any spectator"
