Probably easier to declare early from the sidelines

Competent batting a relief (though anyone who faced India and Australia then got dropped for the West Indies might feel aggrieved).

Bowling... can't read too much from a flat pitch, but Mahmood might make the jump to test level, I fear that could be the end of Woakes (another who might feel let down by previous management). Leach, well, just about good enough for a test role in the absence of anyone else, but I guess we're still casting round for someone better. Would be interesting to see Parkinson, but good T20 is not the same as bowling 60 overs in a test match.
