I would play Kirtley in front of Harmison who has retired from one day cricket, also before Onions - Tremlett - Broad and Hoggard ( who does not play one day cricket.

The reason is - Flintoff picks himself, Mahmood is in some form, Anderson has been in from the start- and Kirtley would finish the attack off - if only playing 4 bowlers, Anderson would have to make way.

Broad - Plunkett - Onions - Tremlett nothing wrong as far as I can tell, but a lack of cricket would keep them out of this World Cup.
