Rashid Selection Was The Right One

There was a bit of a debate on this one ,along with Jennings, they are doing the business

Jennings in particular still has a lot to prove.

Id have liked to have seen Stone given a go instead of Broad.

Still not convinced byJennngs as an opener but who else is there who is making a compelling case as a Test quality 1 or 2.
Rashid has always had the talent but for various reasons he never seemed to kick until now.

This has been a thoroughly entertaining series and although it now looks set for a clean sweep it has been closely fought over the majority of the days.

Yeah agree with you.

The Rashid thing was more about the integrity of the 4 day game than whether Rashid was good enough to get wickets in Sri Lanka against a relatively poor side. The reality is Leach and Ali have outperformed him this series with the ball.

Rashid tends to make big impacts when needed , where Leach and Ali are more accurate over the longer spells ,lucky there is a 3 spin option I guess, otherwise its a tough call for the selectors ,whom I sure now what they have at their disposal, anyway I'm glad he's doing well .
