The thing is Rashid will be dangerous if he gets it right. His variations could be a useful asset on a turning Cardiff pitch, but he hasn't bowled anything like in this match. Panesar on the other hand has looked rather innocuous in the last year or two.

If the wicket is absolute turner, then I would consider Rashid on potential, otherwise it's Onions all the way.
