If Pant would have played all 13 matches since his accident, he would have scored lots of runs and would have been at 3500 atleast.

Matthew Potts should have been part of Englands last test against Srilanka. Josh Hull is not good bowler for tests. Sam Cook definitely needs to get chance in England. It's right time. No doubt, Woakes needs to play in England. But still. I am unsure of what Baz and Ben is doing. Yesterday, players like Banton, Billings, Vince were not playing. Even Roy for that matter. Bairstow haven't played since India series.

Yes in white ball
Bairstow and billings England needed.

In test in english condition woakes is golden ticket.

For outside England England should need to give dombass another shot
