Pick Harmison and Denly

Mike Selvey argues in the Guardian that Steve Harmison must be included in England's touring party to South Africa because of the extra bounce on offer in Johannesburg and Centurion. He also wants Joe Denly to be part of the squad, and Ian Bell as well.

With Monty Panesar consigned, for now, to the county backwaters after the celebrity he enjoyed, the second spinner's role will probably go to Adil Rashid. But there should be caution: he is a promising bowler – allrounder indeed – but by no means ready to fulfil a frontline role. If Graeme Swann was injured, would they turn to him as the only spinner? Could he play a holding role? No one should write off Panesar just yet.
