I would love to see Mark Ramprakash get the call for the batting line-up. Whatever his past record, he is a class player, playing at his peak. Exactly the player resquired to win a match. Whether he has a future for England is irrelevant, pick your best eleven.
As an added icing, for him to score his hundredth 100 on the test stage would be a deserved reward for an intensely proud and completely professional individual, who has carried himself with the very highest dignity throughout his distinguished career.
Please, please allow him a swansong for his career and provide an example to the up and coming future of English cricket of what commitment is all about

What a great temptation to throw in Luke Wright now, as this will give Flintoff more of a challenge, but I'm sure it will be Broad and Hoggard who will play now. Saying that we can't right off Anderson either.
