Vince (?!!!??!?!), Leach and Wood into the squad for Woakes and Moeen.
I get that their bowling has been ineffective but would rather see either of the dropped guys at 3 than Vince.
Gotta think it'll be Leach or Overton who doesn't play based on conditions, which is a shame as it's been a long time since an england team contained two Somerset players - Caddick and Lathwell I think most likely, or did Caddick and Tres cross over?
Actually Kieswetter and Buttler may have played white ball together.

Whilst we can question the ability of the incoming players, can't argue with either players being dropped. If Stokes is bowling, then we don't need an extra seamer, so Vince - Woakes is fair enough, Leach - Ali fair call too.

I love Vince's bowling. Good bounce, and it's all over the place!

Jack Leach to debut. Best of luck to him.

I worry for him. If Stokes isn't bowling, Leach will have to bowl a lot of overs to cover a 3 man seam attack including Wood.
With Christchurch's spin history, can't help but feel 4 seamers + Livingstone might have been more prudent.
Or Woakes as a batting allrounder instead of Vince, obviously.
Basically any permutation where Vince doesn't play. Sigh.

England inserted. Leach probably won't bowl in the first session then, might have to wait till after lunch to turn his arm over.

Stoneman very nearly out three times in the first over and he started at the non strikers end. Blimey.

Cook thoroughly cleaned up by Boult and Vince in against a swinging ball in the third over.
Good opportunity to shed your reputation I guess. Or confirm it.

Well that could have gone a lot worse, Bairstow is a hero, wood can bat at 8 and Leach at 9....broad at 8, fuck me. This will be cooks last match as an England player, he'll quit after this I reckon. That top 6 is all over the place with cook, with out him...yeesh. Reckon we are staring at an awkward summer, Pakistan's bowling attack is dangerous, and India showed in SA that they aren't the pushovers they used to be outside the sub continent.

The Yorkshire fans will be ecstatic, then irate that he won't play for them at all next season.

Highlights are not good....cook has gone, stoneman not good enough, Vince matching all expectations, root in worst form of career broad at 8 is 3 too high. Thank god for JB and wood or that'd have been humiliating again. Not sure leach will fancy bowling on this pitch, looks good for batting and horrible for spin
