The Surrey man was called up to the England squad for the Pakistan series, but suffered devastation just hours later, breaking his thumb in the field in their County Championship game against Lancashire. He would surely give England another dimension with the ball, with his left-arm off spin, something England have not really had since Panesar.

He had been playing brilliantly for Surrey to warrant his first senior call-up, and also gives the opening batsmen option as well, playing at the top of the order for his County. Would definitely have been given a chance in the UAE as a different option to Ali and Rashid.
