Pop Jos back in, because out of all the tonkers, bar Stokes, he has the technique and application, I also think he brings a lot in leadership terms from white ball
Then argue who keeps between Foakes and him
Then argue where Foakes bats as his average and attitude would certainly warrant 5/6 I reckon
But I agree that that team is a decent basis, just need some seamers in the wider squad to stay fit....

There are plenty of decent red ball players, but our selector has an awful mindset. If you gave most people something like
Burns
Sibley
Denly
Root
Pope
Stokes
Foakes
Archer
Leach
Broad
Anderson
Then I'm sure most people would be happy, albeit that it's a long tail. That's the team we'll probably see over the winter, anyway. I suspect this innings from Buttler will keep him in the side and also taking the gloves back from Bairstow, although I've said it enough times that there's no better gloveman in the country right now than Foakes
