No reason Bairstow can't open in this team. He's going to get out early to the new ball some times, but he's also going to be much more consistent than Crawley because he's a far better player. In the Ashes it should be a top 7 of:
Bairstow
Duckett
Pope
Root
Brook
Stokes
Foakes
Is Anderson possibly the second best quick bowler in the history of test cricket?

No, he's the best
Who you got as the best Tim? In my time I can't go past Curtly Ambrose, unplayable more often than not.
I was thinking McGrath
He and Jimmy would definitely be my next 2 with Wasim Akram and as much as I hate to say it as i can't stand him, Broad would round out my top 5.
If the kiwi lad Shane Bond had have played more games I think he would have been right up there too.
….Anderson/Broad now level with McGrath/Warne as the most successful bowling partnership in history.
Very good comeback by NZ but England just slightly ahead. 98-2 at the end of the day.
Good opportunity to score runs in the first couple of sessions then put NZ in to bat under lights

Could have just calmed it down a bit, Pope, didn’t need that
