Bit of a waste of time that series, but nice to see Anderson bowling well, and Bopara and Cook getting some runs. Bopara cementing the number three spot is the only useful thing to come out of it in terms of knowing what the Ashes team will be.
Strauss, Cook, Bopara, Pietersen, Collingwood, Prior, Flintoff, Broad, Swann, Anderson, Panesar
is probably the first choice XI they've got in mind, but if either Flintoff isn't fit, or if they decide only to play one spinner it'll be interesting to see which of the seamers is next in line. I suspect a fully fit Sidebottom would still be first call ahead of Onions or Bresnan.
