Casino Posted February 28, 2023 Author Posted February 28, 2023 3 hours ago, Tonge moor green jacket said: He's not in the side. Opening is better than not playing from his perspective. He isn't without experience neither. he isnt but he was the best in the world last summer he needs to be in the team maybe itd keep root away from brook, too good problem to have Quote
Tonge moor green jacket Posted February 28, 2023 Posted February 28, 2023 With the best will and all that, the team is doing well without him, so the dilemma is risking the harmony and balance or get him to open- even if its just an initial move to get him back in. Quote
globaldiver Posted February 28, 2023 Posted February 28, 2023 And the ODI side play tomorrow, starting at 06.00 Quote

Wanderlust Posted March 3, 2023 Posted March 3, 2023 One day team demolishing Bangladesh. Scored a superb 327 and then Curran took out their first 3 for peanuts - Rashid now cleaning up the middle and lower order. Over rate now over 15 - was a great match for a while but is becoming a procession as England surely clinch the series. Great preparation for the WC. Quote

ODIs might not last much longer. Quote

As much as a T20 can be entertaining, with the hundred too, the short forms may become overloaded. An ODI is a great balance for someone who can't attend a full test match, but wants a proper day out. Quote

Long enough to be a proper challenge but still bitesize and suitable for a WC competition format. Imagine a TM format WC - it would take forever so if cricket is going to have a credible WC it really has to be in the ODI format IMO. Quote

tenii Posted March 8, 2023 Posted March 8, 2023 When Jimmy ultimately leaves, we will miss him. While there are several talented bowlers on the rise, losing a player of Jimmy's calibre must be difficult. Broad won't lag behind him by much. Quote

globaldiver Posted May 16, 2023 Posted May 16, 2023 Disappointing selection. Always pick your best keeper. Hope we don’t miss Archer. Quote

BobyBrno Posted June 2, 2023 Posted June 2, 2023 Good warm up for a few batters and the bowlers. Would liked to have seen more of Harry Brook but I guess we’ll have to wait for t’ashes. Quote
Tonge moor green jacket Posted June 2, 2023 Posted June 2, 2023 Michael Vaughan just come back on the wireless. Didn't realise the BBC had got him back on TMS. Good to have him back, but I wouldn't have blamed him if he had said "ram it..". Quote
