Just seen the Andy Flower interview Jonny on SSN, looks as though there will be an announcement of some sort tomorrow on KP!
Will be interesting to see how they for the first test. There must be a temptation to push Prior up to 6 which would allow a second spinner probably Patel.
Cook, Root, Trott, KP, Bell, Prior, Patel, Broad, Swann, Anderson, Finn.
If Prior kept at 7.
Cook, Root, Trott, KP, Bell, Morgan/Bairstow/Compton, Prior, Broad, Swann, Anderson, Finn.
The second option would rely on Root being able to provide a back up spin option. Panesar would be the obvious second spinner option but based on the England selectors way of making the batting as long as possible I dont see them playing Finn, Anderson and Monty in the same team.
Also apparantly Bell will miss a test due to his wife having a baby. So will need to reshuffle for that as well.
In reality looking at the venues, I would want monty in there as the second best spinner, but dont see it happening.
