A completely new team to be called up later....... https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/cricket/57732043 County Championship matches end tomorrow so guys might have to rush off ready to play a different format the very next day, after four days of Cricket. We should still be able to pick a competitive team and it might give them the chance to hand a few debuts to different lads. Harry Brook must surely be due a call up as he's one of the players of the season for any county.
I'd have liked to see a strong side take on Pakistan. In the build up to the India test series. I know it's different formats but the India series should be the be all and end all being before an Ashes. I mean it's not like we haven't won the twenty20 World Cup before.
https://www.ecb.co.uk/england/men/n...quad-for-royal-london-series-against-pakistan I cannot see Hales playing again as he's annoyed the ECB multiple times. That's a side that should still look to beat Pakistan.
I'm a little baffled that Brooks hasn't got a call up as they've had to swap the entire team, but maybe its a bit much to put him in with an all new team and plenty of players have been ruined by being called up too early.
I can’t think of any reason why Brook isn’t in the squad. Perhaps he’s to be considered for the red ball game as we’re needing a young all rounder to be integrated ?
https://www.espncricinfo.com/player/harry-brook-911707/matches Look at his last ten scores and today he's got a century. He's in great form in multiple formats and only 22.
