Interesting paragraph from a piece by the Telegraph.
"Jake Ball will have to make his Test debut in front of a full house at Lord’s instead of being bedded in gradually against Sri Lanka. It was by picking Compton that the selectors created a problem, which then had to be solved by selecting Chris Woakes to bolster the batting."
So the writer doesn't see the selection of Woakes as a like for like player for Stokes but is there because the selectors had little faith in Compton. That's a twist no one else has come up with.
Work expands to fill the time available, so why do today what can be put off until tomorrow.
