The best part about the clash between the Windies and the Poms is that England have players called Stokes, Woakes and Foakes.
And interestingly one should never tour overseas, one should not have toured Australia and one should always be touring.

Strangely enough leaving out Anderson and Broad doesn’t appear to have sorted Englands top order issues.

I see the need for managing both Anderson and Broad and I also see the need for looking for and blooding long term replacements but were going back to picking the trundlers save for Wood. He is a bit like Devon Malcolm in that he has the pace but is sometime a bit awry and there fore not trusted. But as a batsman (which I never was) I think I'd rather face a trundler that puts it on or near the spot than an out and out pace man where I don't know where the fuck it's going.
Steve Waugh said much the same back along

Bloody hell, England are 189/1 !!!!
Given the West Indies have been prone to horrific collapses for about, well 20 odd years it’s fair to say the Poms are in the box seat.
Unbelievable to see anyone other than Root in the top order get a ton too. Well done Creepy Crawley

Forget I spoke. Just saw the score. Sheesh....
it's great that Aus are there - and this is a stellar performance. Bat once, bat big, win the test.
But they’re not…..I’m no cricket captain but why are Oz batting again ?
Geez Australians like selecting guys called Mitchell. Who is Swepson ? I know enough about Johnson, Starc and of course @NTA favourite Marsh but nothing about this guy……

to avoid batting last! Put the game out of reach, there's plenty of time to have a real crack at them
