    Where will Vaughan and Flintoff fit in now. Also, will Anderson and Jones be back. Read or Jones?
    Captain? Openers? Giles or Monty?

    For me:
    Straus
    Trescothick
    Vaughan (c)
    Pietersen
    Flintoff
    Bell
    Collingwood
    Read
    Hoggard
    Harmison
    Panesar

    Very strong batting line up, but would require Collingwood and Pietersen to turn their arm over

    vaughan will not be fit

    thats has been confirmed, doubts over his future. as for the reast have to look at form going into it really. Monty lot better with the ball that Giles. I Suspect Read will be in if he keeps his batting up. Jones would probably come back if fit.

    Although last thing we want to do is be taking lots of half fit players over there again

    Doubt they would go in with only 3 'proper' bowlers.
    I suppose it will also vary according to the different pitches. Warne reckons we may need two spinnners for one of the tracks (I forget which)

    My full strength eleven would be:

    Strauss
    Trescothick
    Vaughan
    Pietersen
    Flintoff
    Collingwood
    Read
    Jones
    Hoggard
    Harmison
    Panesar

    you are right he was hoping to be fit

    i had forgot that, they did announce he was out at one point. Certainly will not make the start. I would just leave him out, bringing him in Half way through would be pointless.

    To be honest I can't remember him contributing much in his last few tests
