The contenders for the spot would be James Tredwell, Adil Rashid and Monty Panesar.
A number 2 spinner would be important for England with the Ashes coming up and spin will play apart in places like Sydney and Adelaide, which would favor England playing two spinners.
Unless Swann is...

Forget Stuart Broad, Adil Rashid should be Andrew Flintoff's all-round replacement - Times Online
Warne has a point. The worry with batting Broad at seven is that he is yet to get a FC hundred. He also mentions in that article that Broad should go and bat in the top order for Notts, so he can...
He no longer looks threatening. He doesn't appear get the dip that he used to get and doesn't turn the ball as much as he used to and that is what I think has caused his recent downfall.
With another disappointing bowling performance of 1-115 in the Australian innings, is this the end of the...
Ten places are set in stone for England in the first test at Cardiff but who should take the last bowling spot in the XI. The pitch will most likely spin and two spinners could be an option but Onions has the current seam spot with good performances against the Windies. Should England play a...
Despite the rules being clear on swearing, a lot of people do it around the forum.
We have to remember that this is an all age forum and we welcome kids onto the forums.
I think some of you maybe have misunderstood about the swear filter. It is only there to mask swear words temporarily so a...
Looking at the test match between England and New Zealand, a lot was made of bad light and the time it took out of the game. The question is should we do something about it, if yes what can we do?
What I thought is that we could experiment with what light is considered a "risk of injury" in...

Rashid included means they'll be looking at him for the Indian tour in the winter as a third spinner, providing he has a good season. Tredwell will also get an opportunity to prove his worth.
Rob Key is back in favor of the...
I'm sure our English members have seen Bill Frindall have a segement where he answers questions from the pubilc and I've decided to do that myself.
Just ask me any question to do with stats and I'll try and answer it for you.
I'm not going to answer every question right like Bill Frindall...
Victor Trumper is at the top of my list. Skill wise they said he was as good as Bradman but would entertain the crowd like no other. ODI and Twenty20 cricket would be taylor made for Trumper since (Twenty20 at least) allows you to play with freedom, which is the way Trumper approached batting...
I thought when Sureshot was talking about NASH in another thread I would start this one since I had pneumonia last year, which is a really horrible illness to experience.
Anyway if you have had an illness or serious injury, post it here if you want us to hear.
Since everyone is starting a blog site, I thought I would do one myself. I'm going to talk about cricket around the world and also talk about games/cricketers from the past as well.
Enjoy reading.

I thought I would try and rejuvenate graphics and add a competition.
Here are the rules:
I pick a topic of which to make, this could include anything from cricketers or footballers or even themselves.
People make a signature, an avatar and a wallpaper.
You will have 2 weeks to add in an entry...
I was wondering whether or not anybody follows the pool or not but I was watching the opening day today and its been difficult for the players to start with.
Tony Drago is always dangerous in 9-Ball pool and he managed to go through to the last 64 and Reyes also made it after a scare.
I...
We all know that he's got good talent and genuine alround ability but is it too early to for him to be even considered for a test place in Sri Lanka or even a place in the squad.
The ECB have got a performance squad that was announced last week which included him so it could also be an idea...
Look at the current Australian side and looking at some of the players next in line aren't exactly young.
There doesn't seem to me to be any effort to try and raise young cricketers to build for the future while other countries such as England and India (to an extent) are trying to raise some...
Could someone make a banner for the PC report for me please.
I could do it myself but I want some who has quality to do it.
If anyone could do I I'll be most greatful.
I thought of an idea that our News team members and staff can write reports on International matches played.
The news team members selected write about their teams point of view and the staff write their overviews.
It will be presented like so:
Overview
Home point of view
