But should miracle man start first Test?

AS a full back, my instinct is to look to the back three. Aerial ability is key — so Josh Adams, Liam Williams and Anthony Watson make it into my first Test XV.

Adams is the try scorer, Watson is electric and Williams has great counter-attacking ability. I don’t think Owen Farrell has played well enough to start, so I have gone for the old Connacht partnership of Bundee Aki and Robbie Henshaw.

At blindside flanker I like Courtney Lawes for his line-out prowess. He’s been class so far.

When it comes to Alun Wyn Jones, I’m just not sure he can come straight in. And for me he starts or doesn’t play. The Lions can’t have him coming on and find his shoulder going again, as they would be short at lock for the rest of the game.

MIKE BROWN’S STARTING XV: Williams; Adams, Henshaw, Aki,

A Watson; Biggar, Murray; W Jones, George, Sinckler, Itoje, Henderson, Lawes, H Watson, Faletau.
