[QUOTE="Darwin, post: 613254, member: 24910"] There was a lot of talk when the squad was announced about England 'putting all their eggs in one basket' by picking a pile of tall 'bounce' bowlers (Tremlett, Rankin, and Finn). The strange thing is they seem to have gone out of their way not to pick any of them. Tremlett played the first test and (ending up with respectable match figures of 4-120), but since them none of these bowlers have been sighted. I'm not at all suggesting picking these players would be the answer to England's problems (as their issues run deeper than this), but it is strange that they haven't even tried to pick players who could exploit the conditions. Australia have this game in the bag, but it is nice to see Stokes showing a bit of his batting talent. [/QUOTE]
