Look how many cockups jones did before he had to hand over the gloves. Do you think the standard of keeping is anything more than 10% of fletchers reasons for who is behind the stumps. Read will be publicly flogged then dropped as soon as he returns to blighty. Fully expect Jones to be in the box seat for the world cup.
