Well 5-0 is now pretty much inevitable. I'd bring in Ballance for Carberry, Borthwick for Panesar, and Tremlett for Bresnan.

Bell
Pietersen
Ballance
Stokes

Borthwick
Broad
Tremlett

Expecting Harris and possibly Watson to be rested. Possibly for Bollinger and Faulkner

Aust will go in unchanged. Harris just declared himself fit to play and Watto didn't look like a guy in discomfort today.

I'm quite sure Aus will play unchanged

All this resting and pampering nonsense seems out with this old fashioned coach they have now.

It's amazing how players tend to stay fit in a winning team. And I'm honestly not being cynical. When Aus were losing, a player was getting injured every match.

Sam Robson. If you guys really want him to play for you, then now is the chance to lure him with a test call-up.

Yeah, England used to use this justification to keep picking Tim Bresnan.

Depressingly, they still do, albeit increasingly modified: "We've won a lot of Tests with him in the side."

By the end of the series it'll be: "We haven't lost that many series with him in the side."

Best of luck.

I'm not entirely sure, as the qualification rules seem to change on a weekly basis, but I think it's all over now he's played for England Lions.

Aw Trev, now that's a little bit churlish, no? Merls came back when England were winning and most of us welcomed him back warmly.  shrug

Did we f*ck. He came back when England were 3-0 up and predicted a whitewash.

England haven't won a game since.
