rf_fozzy May 2016 2:19pm, 23 May 2016 7,727 posts	0 rf_fozzy Broad is correct: 2567 runs. Followed by Stokes on 1395 and Bairstow in 1344 Which helps explain the inconsistency in England's batting at present - we lack experience in the middle order.
TRO Saracen May 2016 2:24pm, 23 May 2016 12,927 posts	0 TRO Saracen Woakes in for Stokes. They'd have been better off with John Bleedin' Noakes...

Crash Hamster May 2016 3:18pm, 23 May 2016 740 posts	0 Crash Hamster Woakes is in good form with the bat and Durham may suit him... Waqar and Wasim used to bowl off about 19 yards... it ended Nick Knight's Test career... If there'd have been replays after a wicket now, it might have been a different story... I have a soft spot for unathletic cricketers; see also Mark Cosgrove and Fatgit Patel.
Wriggling Snake May 2016 3:23pm, 23 May 2016 12,035 posts	0 Wriggling Snake I suppose that lack of experience shows why they went with Compaton (at least age), Stuck with Bell and wer so disappointed by Taylor's health issues. Still, it means this team, Cook apart, may well be together for ages.
