Feel free to pick 5 players from the two countries (a mix of the two, or 5 from one country - it's up to you), and two reserve players just incase one of the chosen 5 does not play. The first reserve player picked will come into contention first.

Scoring system

Batting

1 point per run
+10 for a half century
+20 for a century (+10 for any additional half century)
If a batsman is not out after 50 = +10, after 100 = +15, after 200 = +25 etc....

Fielding

10 points per catch or stumping
20 points per run out, or 10 points each, if two players share the responsibility
10 bonus points for 3 contributions with catches,stumpings or run outs

Bowling

20 points per wicket
2 points per maiden over
+10 for 5 wickets in the match
+20 for 5 wickets in an innings
+30 for 10 wickets in the match
+50 for 10 wickets in an innings
+30 for a hat tric


I know it's early but put the thread up before i forget

Stokes should be good for Pakistan, his court date is not until August.

This is going to be a tough one to pick. England's form has been horrible of late, but they are at home and are usually tough to beat, especially early in the season when the ball swings. I also know very little about who is likely to perform from Pakistan.

Given the relative strengths of both sides' bowling and batting, combined with English conditions in May, and it will be tempting to pick five bowlers (or four plus Big Ben)

This is a very green Pakistan squad (no pun intended). Five uncapped players, and three more who have only played one or two tests. Just five players with 20 or more tests, and those five were the only ones here last time Pakistan played in England, a mere two years ago.

Makes squad selection even harder - there's some likely talent in the Pakistan ranks, but who will be the new face that impresses?
