England Take Two to Nil Lead In ODI Series v Pakistan.

It is always interesting to note the differences between the Test squad and the ODI squad. There are fewer players than you would imagine who are shared between the two.
On Saturday, what we really learned was how many test 'quicks' are under threat from players in the ODI squad.
Clearly, Chris Woakes is now cemented into both, the lightning fast and accurate Mark Wood is a certainty for the tours of Bangladesh and India this autumn and the neglected Plunkett must now feature. This may well be very bad news for Steven Finn whose general form has been inadequate in the last year.
Stuart Broad may not be an automatic choice any longer.

Perhaps controversially, I am going to advocate not sending the aging Jimmy Anderson. His very special qualities for swinging a cricket ball are not going to work on the Indian sub-continent. As our only truly great swing bowler, everything must be done to extend his career as long as possible. Working himself into the ground on dusty pitches over months may well have a detrimental effect on him. Give him a rest!
