We've gone from having an embarrassment of riches in the fast bowling department with a "battey of pace" awaiting the Convicts to now scratching around to fill spaces at the required level
Whilst we roll out the red carpet for Marnus and Smithy to get their eye in, good old British spirit!
No issue with Bairstow for Foakes personally, just like the extra batting option but Foakes has done little wrong
With the Aussies also playing the Indians in what will be a competive test prior to the Ashes I'd see them being better prepared and ready to go than us come Edgbaston, regardless it should be a good series, don't see Stokes bowling a ball all summer and hardly worth a place as a stand alone batsmen on current form
