Dave A Mar 2015 2:14pm, 18 Mar 2015 20,993 posts	0 Dave A I was a bit concerned at the talk of Trott opening, with him not being an opener. Hopefully Cook has regained his form following his break. A few runs before the Ashes shoukd help his confidence.
flanker Mar 2015 3:23pm, 18 Mar 2015 15,728 posts	0 flanker bringing back Trott is hardly looking towards the future And it looks like Finn has been made a scapegoat again - just what he needs in his struggle to get his confidence back.
The Teaboy Mar 2015 3:25pm, 18 Mar 2015 12,643 posts	0 The Teaboy I'm just wondering if with Graves coming in, the selectors are just going to select Yorkshire to play for England at some point.
flanker Mar 2015 3:25pm, 18 Mar 2015 15,729 posts	0 flanker Trott can open as the stats say that on 82.4% of the time he will score 26% more runs than 72% of the other non-openers that that have a 16% chance of playing at no.1 and 23% chance of no.2. I think.
The Teaboy Mar 2015 3:25pm, 18 Mar 2015 12,644 posts	0 The Teaboy Finn needs county cricket and to stay as far away from England bowling coaches as possible.
Dave A Mar 2015 3:28pm, 18 Mar 2015 20,994 posts	0 Dave A Will they let Plunkett bowl properly, or just wear him out after a couple of games of 'enforcer' stuff?

Wriggling Snake Mar 2015 5:38pm, 18 Mar 2015 9,025 posts	0 Wriggling Snake Decisions, Decisions, Decisions. KP Correct Trott Incorrect Cook Incorrect (but hardly mattered)
Dave A Mar 2015 7:53pm, 18 Mar 2015 20,996 posts	0 Dave A On the subject of Finn, something I mentioned to Flanker the other night, but I'm pretty sure pre World Cup he was bowling really well until Anderson and Broad came back. Same goes for Woakes. Perhaps KP speaks the truth
