In terms of this thread that's the proverbial "shutting of the stable door after the horse has bolted" !(facepalm)

Stokes is not allowed to play for England while Plod and the CPS are fannying around.
Stokes is charged with Affray which is a serious offence but can play for England on the basis that the trial may take some time and it would be unfair to stop him playing.
Not sure how logical that is. :S

I think the answer is it is totally illogical - maybe there were some Aussies working behind the scenes in CPS and the general Criminal Justice system
I can only think it was down to the possibility he might have been up for more serious charges.

This ODI cricket is bloody easy....
Englands ODI side when you add Stokes into it looks a proper side

3-0! Not a problem....
5-0 would be a sweet way of saying thanks.
Butler outstanding...Woakes is a very good all round cricketer these days

Perhaps the next time we have a test series anywhere just pick the one day side and stick with that instead of sending three different squads out.

Hales , Butler , Roy & Morgan all better bats than Ballance , Vince & Stoneman....

Hales shouldn't be anywhere near the test side.
I wouldn't be against Jos Buttler coming in for Vince, keeping wicket and allowing Bairstow to move up the order.

I'd argue the opposite with both. Hales was coming good as a Test batsman and it was only his refusal to tour Bangladesh that lost him his place.
Buttler's technique with the red ball is *awful*, it's perfectly suited to the comparatively low risk white ball game.
