Despite being champions of the main 1-day competition in the past 2 years, Essex have ZERO players in the England team. Could someone please explain this? A vital ingredient in one-day cricket is knowing one's role in a team, so I suggest the following for the World Cup:
Pettini
Irani
Pietersen
Flower (qualified I believe?)
Bopara
Flintoff
Foster
Middlebrook
Gough
Lewis
Panesar
Obviously with overseas players you have to make a couple of changes but surely we can't argue at least the following changes would improve the team:
Irani for Strauss
Flower for Bell
Bopara for Joyce
Foster for Nixon
Middlebrook for Dalrymple
Gough for Tremlett.
The 2 who I feel really bad for are Foster (God only knows how he upset Fletcher) and Gough, who bowled well during the Summer and was let down by some shocking catching / communication from Read and Trescothick in the slip cordon.
