MATTHEW POTTS claims the fierce battle for fast bowling spots this winter is healthy rather than bitter.
The Durham pace bowler hopes to press forward his right to be included in England's winter tour plans by taking wickets at The Oval this week.
He has seen Gus Atkinson shine with both ball and bat, while Chris Woakes has also impressed and Olly Stone, right, returned with pace and success at Lord's.
There will be huge decisions for England selectors to make if Mark Wood proves he is fit to go on tour and captain Ben Stokes demonstrates his ability to run in at full throttle again.
So the third and final Test against Sri Lanka, starting on Friday, offers further opportunity to those wishing to prove their worth and remain part of such an ambitious and driven team.
