As reserve batter, in case of a late injury.

 

Who should it have been?

Same old England...never pick there best players. Harmison is the best opening bowler we have!

Better than

 

Anderson?

Flintoff?

Onions?

Broad?

 

No x 4

 

He might get a chance in this series, though.

 

Doesn't quite have the ticker, I'm afraid.

Yes i believe Harmison is better than Anderson, Onions and Broad. Flintoff...go on ill give you that, Flintoff is a better bowler than Harmy. But he should definately be in the team in my opinion.

you have managed a team of any sort?

 

i suspect not

 

harmisons attitude/desire call it what you will is suspect, at best

 

at worst, he could be seen as negative and disruptive

 

its all about the mix of individuals

 

harmison, on his day is in amongst the best in the world, but how much does his presence hinder anderson as attack leader

 

harmison - on talent, yes

 

everything else - no

We're playing 2 spinner aren't we so leaves only 3 fast bowlers positions, Flintoff, Broad and Anderson.

Its just my opinion....

and im explaining why i think its wrong

 

harmison isn't left out because folk don't think he can bowl well

 

its cos of plenty other things

He should be gone for good. Can't play for your country on your own terms and he's taken the piss and spat his dummy enough times. All the assets to be a great bowler, but a soft c?nt. Not sure why there's so much fuss about his bowling last week, they scored 438-4 second innings for God's sake, not like he won the game on his own. Nah, fuck him off for good.

Cassie, just say it - He's mad as a box of really mad frogs!

for me harmison is living off what happend in '05 and just because he's knocked a few aussies over it doesn't entitle him to a spot. harmison will get in the squad somewhere in this series but other bowlers are beter than him at the moment. will do him good not to play at cardiff, and if he does get back in to the starting XI then he might have a bit more fire in his belly because of this exclusion.

Moore or Denly who opened for the lions. both got scores whereas Bell failed

Absolute shite mate of the highest order.

 

im sorry but you have just told everyone of this board that you know fuck all about cricket imo.

 

Anderson has moulded himself into one of the best and most effective bowlers in world cricket

Same old England...never pick there best players. Harmison is the best opening bowler we have!

 

2nd slip ring any bells? Harmison is a bottler.

If it werent the ashes they probably would have had a chance but Bell got in off his experience by the skin of his teeth imo.

That is one of the most shocking things i have ever read on this forum You cant actually believe that can you? Wait until you see Anderson swinging it both ways in the late eighties this summer, he is going to take a lot of wickets.

Hes an idiot Tylswhite.

 

Both our replys say pretty much the same, The boy knows fuck all.

 

Anderson will be the leading wicket taker

I was genuinely shocked to read that and that doesnt happen much on here Anderson is going to be a massive part of England getting back the ashes imo. Wont suprise me one bit if he is the man of the series as well.
