Thorpe certainly should stay around as long as possible, as he's the only batsman England have who is - or has been - worldclass, and younger players can learn from him. No chance of Hussain being dropped either, now, but he'll still have to do OK in the next test to hang in for the third. So... it looks like Butcher for the chop.

If England had a Jim Laker or Derek Underwood in the team, I'd go for Read as wicketkeeper because he's far better at that than Jones, and would feature in more dismissals. As things stand, I'd stay with Jones. Jones no doubt conceded more extras than Read would have done, but the difference in their batting more than compensates.
