Bell v Bairstow

I'd have gone with Bell 5 and Bopara 6 myself. Bairstow may well be the next big thing, but a hundred against a second string local attack and 40odd doesn't make him better than Ian Bell in my book, who is probably England's best player of spin. But at least it's one ginge in and one out....don't want to over do the quota!

Who'd have thought it....me defending Ian Bell! Now watch Bairstow score a match winning hundred....

Bairstow average for the series = 12. I'd like to think Bell could have done a little better if he'd been given 5 matches....
