It was somewhat of a surprise that Atkinson didn't play in India.
He clearly has some ability.
Instead they went for the lets see if we can break mark wood approach.

Why smash a new fast bowler apart over there. That's Joe Root type captaincy.
I just worked out I first saw Anderson play for England, Edgbaston, 4-38, v SA, ODI, day/night, July 2003.
My main memory of that game was how on earth did Paul Adams bowl at all.

I don't think I've seen one THAT close to the grass that was also taken as cleanly.

"Why smash a new fast bowler apart over there"
Then why did they take him in the squad?
And decide to break Mark Wood apart instead?

To show him what a tour is like, and Wood won't be in the team come the Ashes.
