Andy Moles: Former Warwickshire batsman on leg amputation and PCA Trust
Ex-Warwickshire batsman Andy Moles had his left leg amputated 10 weeks ago, but that is not stopping him walking 10km for charity.

Not sure what it says about recent selection policy that we've managed to pick a 30 man squad where only 2 or 3 of them are first time call ups. Or that a bloke who was opening the batting for us 9 months ago now can't even make the longlist.England men name behind closed doors training group ahead of first Test against West Indies

Good to see Moeen back. Best spinner if he's in any sort of form and lengthens the tail batting at 8.

Stoneman? Or hameed? James bracey is a very new name on that list, never heard of him.
Well I meant Roy but they work too! I haven't seen much of Bracey other than T20 where he hasn't looked that great, but he did pretty well with the Lions in the winter I think. A batsman who can keep rather than the other way round. I really like Alex Davies at Lancs but Bracey's evidently ahead of him now so he must be a pretty good player.

Haha, god we've been through some openers. I thought roy was going to slot into test cricket fine, he has no problem taking apart some really top class bowlers in odi's so it was strange.
Essentially they don't trust the county game.
Same. I'm a bit surprised they haven't kept him around, even if it's only with a view to potentially using him lower down the order, I know he had a bit of a nightmare in the ashes but it's not like others haven't been given multiple chances.
Think they will go for Burns and Sibley opening with Crawley at 3 and Root 4, Pope 5, Stokes 6, Buttler 7.
Think Denly could be dropped.
For me: Burns, Sibley, Crawley, Root, Stokes, Pope, Foakes, Ali, Archer, Broad, and Anderson
But I suspect Foakes will miss out and it'll be that team with Buttler in his place
