Should Lee play at Headingley?


It looks like Lee is fit and can be selected for the team. I have a feeling that he should not play at Headingley, but at Oval as it may suit his style of bowling.

The Oval track can help bowlers to get reverse swing as it is more of a abrasive surface, and is a bit quicker than Headingley which is usually on the slower side, and may not suit Lee's style of bowling.

Headingley track usually suits bowlers who are accurate, and pitch it up, but Lee is not accurate and has the habit of bowling short on slower wickets. Lee is a good bowler but he is not in the class of Steyn as he is not consistent enough though at Oval the pitch can suit his style of bowling.
