What a game Blackwell had for Somerset today. We should get him in the England side!

He is currently lying in 26th position in the batting averages, with an average of 47, having scored 3 hundreds - far in excess of Afzaal, who doesn't make any list of averages I can find!!

If England's line up in the future went

1 Vaughan
2 Trescothick
3 Butcher
4 Thorpe
5 Knight
6 Hussain *
7 Foster (WK)
8 Blackwell
9 Tudor
10 Caddick
11 Gough

We would have bowlers: Gough, Caddick, Tudor, Blackwell, Butcher, Vaughan, Trescothick and still have a very strong tail.

If we take the following in reserve

1 Fulton
2 Bell
3 Shah
4 Afzaal
5 Habib
6 Flintoff
7 White
8 Cork
9 Schofield
10 Nixon (WK)
11 Hoggard

We have 22 players. Contract all of these and look to pick from amongst these 22 for the next 12 months. All 22 to turn up for practise at each test match. Take 'em all on tour and look to play lots and lots of 4-day matches.
