Horror patch of four innings. That said, given the selection over Harris was 50/50 in the first place, the pressure is mounting. I think he's get one more shot, regardless of what Harris does, but unless he scores big in this Test, he'll be out.
Apparently Langer isn’t even at the tour match so doesn’t seem like performances there will count for much
Langer's only 48. He should don the pads and show the lads how to open the batting for Australia.bring back George Bailey , only 36

Jofra Archer: England Ashes hopeful in the wickets again for Sussex second XI
Jofra Archer improves his chances of an England call-up for the second Ashes Test as he bowls 19 overs for Sussex second XI.

Cricinfo page of the game is here but hasn't been updated, but have heard that most of the Gloucestershire team was under 20, so the 6 for 27 and ton were a pretty standard result for an international tier genuine fast bowler against a bunch of kids and the 1 for 78 should be ringing alarm bells for England.: https://www.espncricinfo.com/series...outh-division-second-eleven-championship-2019

Does Dean Jones still think its 'dangerous' that Joffa played after that second spell? Also he played for Derby just in case you hadnt heard.
Cant see how Starc plays considering all talk has been about strangling boundaries being the core strategy over there. Only change that should be considered is Hazlewood in for Pattinson.

Why drop Pattinson?
Considered being the key word

Only possible reason would be to manage his fitness, but I hope the rotating pace lineup policy left with Lehmann.

If he is fit we should play him. Nothing ever held back bowlers a decade ago playing if they were fit. The best way to stay fit as a bowler is to bowl.
A number of reasons
- Workload: The amount of overs he bowled in the first innings is the most he's bowled in ****ing years and we clearly saw how losing a bowler in the first innings can drastically alter the course of the match. You can say "back in the day they just bowled" but that means shit all for a guy historically made of glass.
- Conditions: If its a seaming green top they are the perfect conditions for Hazlewood.
- Strategy: They clearly want to limit boundaries and build pressure on the likes of Roy, Buttler, Denly and Bairstow as they pack it in if they go 20 balls without getting one to the ropes.
I would personally pick Pattinson but dont make out you're oblivious to the reasons they might consider Hazlewood a good option for a green seaming lords wicket

Read an article which said that England would name their side for Lord's tonight (AEST).
Possible that it may be a 'squad' instead - seems strange to name a side for a match 5 days out, when no one has had a look at the final state of the pitch.

It'll be the squad.
Well he is the second best spinner in the squad...
Steve Smith might disagree
England are medium rare.
Australia have a better batting and bowling lineup.
After the 2nd test the poms will be well and truly cooked.
Unchanged lineup.
2-0, thanks for coming you pommy campaigners.

Badly want us to win this one. 2-0 before we head up north.
Smith IIRC has an average below 10 up on their northern grounds.
Get that 2 win buffer and I don't even think the bowler friendly conditions at Headingley and OT will stop us retaining.

Bang, thank you. Save ya legs. Hammer, nail, head.
Siddle, Cummo n Patto get to go again at Lords.
Look to rest Patto in the 3rd test for Hazlewood who I believe needed a kick up the arse and will come back a better test match bowler after losing his spot.
Starcs a gun ODI bowler, he's 5th in line for our test bowling lineup.

Point 1 fair, but if he isn’t injured and manages his body well over the next week until the test then why not?
Point 2 & 3 absolute nonsense.

Or....maybe Lyon wasn't playing and Marnus was the main spin option.
