Might just be hitting a bit of form at the right time. |  |

Currently in the men’s it is : Australia India South Africa Great Britain (England and Wales ,Scotland and Northern Irish Ireland players eligible ) West Indian representative/Canada ( decided by a tournament ) USA (host) It’s based on the IOC wanting a top ranked member of each Olympic ring (region) and the hosts of course. If USA don’t get accepted ( which is a possibility due to their standard ) they may have a world playoff tournament for that final spot. The ICC by bending over for the IOC with this qualification scenario would be hoping for a change in subsequent editions re. Quantity of teams especially as Brisbane and possibly Ahmedabad would follow as summer Olympics. |  |

Either way we have some form and confidence. But Buttler has to go. There is a fair theory that one good spell and he will be back and an important contributor, but the run is just too long and bad now. We are playing with 10. Is Duckett out there? He can do the job. |  |

You’re absolutely right of course but I was unfairly and possibly stupidly thinking they have no chance against India and in Calcutta specifically with the bowling attacks of both. |  |

We’ve got a really handy long tail now and Brook now at 3 is a blessing and any lower and it’s a waste. |  |

This was the game to tinker really, there's probably a case for dropping Bethell also and maybe dropping Buttler down to about five |  |
