Panesar in bid for Ashes call
ENGLAND’S selectors will reveal at lunchtime today if spinner Monty Panesar has won a reprieve from cricket’s hierarchy and a squad place for this winter’s Ashes series.
Panesar has worked his way back into contention having been fined by police after urinating on bouncers outside a Brighton nightclub last month.
Other hopefuls for the 17-man squad include fast bowlers such as Boyd Rankin, Chris Tremlett, Steven Finn, and Graham Onions, as well as batsman Nick Compton.
