Despite the fact he’s had a bad summer, Cook will be very difficult to replace as England still haven’t managed to replace Strauss as an opener.

For those who enjoy freaky cricket stats - all of us, surely? - this is pretty neat.

He was a fantastic player, one of the very best and clearly an awesome guy. I never really enjoyed watching him though, same with Gooch.

Very good WI fast bowler name :-).

Alistair Cook retired with a test bowling average of 7

Most of the bets placed so far seem more like hopeful punts rather than value spots

Bumrah runs in to bowl as though he thinks he's a horse.

Bumrah has really impressed me, had him pigeon holed as a white ball bowler

I cant see anderson retiring just yet or even broad, though i agree that Jimmy is wearing better. They both have chances to break all kinds of records, and why would you retire if the ball is going to continue to swing as much as it has done this summer!

I would personally let Broad have a rest for the Sri lanka tour, they will pick 3/4 spinners and one seamer, so Jimmy and Stokes would be my seam choices. Then pick The Beard, Rashid and Leach with root as your spinners. What you do with the batting, I really have no idea.

My team for Sri Lanka:

Burns
Jennings (not great either way, but plays spin well and they wont want to replace both at the same time imo)
Moeen
Root
Denly/Pope/clarke
Stokes
Bairstow
Buttler
Rashid
Anderson
Leach

I really dont know where or how they fit the extra batter in. Buttler seems too low at 8.

Woakes or curran possibly to bat 8 but only as a batter if they are the best option.

What do we think?

Sure is, and pretty unusual to get to the ton with a 5 I would have thought.

The ovation was as long as any I can recall in cricket, there seems to be tremendous warmth towards him, and quite right too.

I don't see how you drop Curran. Agreed about Butler being too low. I would stick Curran at 8 and get rid of your number 5 options and bump everyone up one.
