That's where most of Fletcher's ideal WC XI are isn't it? Tresco, Pietersen, Geraint and Simon Jones, Blackwell, Giles, Gough, Harmison... and Vaughan's doing the net bit even if he's not home.

Two bright notes for Fletcher: Tremlett is now surely WAY ahead of Plunkett in the pecking order... and Panesar looks an increasingly secure bet as a frontline bowler. That suggests a WC squad (bowling) of:

Anderson
Lewis
Flintoff
Tremlett
Panesar
Collingwood
Dalrymple
Giles

Let's just hope that crew remains fit!
