Some of them need to be playing though: surprised one of them didn't play against Pakistan to see what they're like. The Ashes is no series to be blooding newbies. It would be good to have a left-armer again (I think Rankin is Irish again) Curran is very much for the future though.
Never a mention of Rushworth - guess he's missed his chance now
Just seen that article about Rankin.
Makes sense I guess for him to go back to playing for Ireland.
Rushworth does not seem to appear in dispatches.
I would certainly take Overton or Curran along for the ride in South Africa. Patel will not go and is there any point in taking Rashid?
