Seam bowler Ollie Robinson has even turned his arm over with some offies during a miserable Ashes defeat in Adelaide since Dawson's last Test.

England have often favoured pace or variation in height or angle in recent selections but Cook is a more traditional, skilful seam bowler - his debut a reward for his superb County Championship record.

Sam Cook has been the outstanding seam bowler in county cricket for the past number of years.

Former England seam bowler Anderson, 42, has made the cut after the list was trimmed from 1,574 initial entries to 574 following consultation with the 10 IPL teams.

He added 63 for the eighth wicket with Milan Rathnayake, the seam bowler playing his first Test.
