Title: Cash series squad [aka the lucky bastards]
Post by: larwood on Tuesday, September 9, 2008, 14:19:53
Here it is the news we've all been waiting for.

England's 15-man one-day squad for Stanford Super Series and India ODI series: Kevin Pietersen (Hampshire) capt, James Anderson (Lancashire) Ian Bell (Warwickshire), Ravi Bopara (Essex), Stuart Broad (Nottinghamshire), Paul Collingwood (Durham), Alastair Cook (Essex), Andrew Flintoff (Lancashire) Stephen Harmison (Durham), Samit Patel (Nottinghamshire), Matt Prior (Sussex) Owais Shah (Middlesex), Graeme Swann (Nottinghamshire), Ryan Sidebottom (Nottinghamshire), Luke Wright (Sussex).

Of course lest it be forgotten its also the squad for the tour of India too and it seems we've neglected to pick a replacement wicket keeper,oh well.

I think Prior will be ok. He might be a midget, but his catching seemed to have improved in the ODIs.

They should of just picked 12men and left 3 spaces as incentive for the fringe players to perform in the upcoming test matches.

if Prior gets unlucky and get's injured i think Colly could be the man to put on the gloves behind the stumps.

Monty's never been brilliant in the limited overs games.

I can't see how Cook warrants a ODI place, to be honest
