Currently playing for Auckland in New Zealand, but has been in the Surrey first team for a couple of years now. Got a chance then, if the selectors don't have to navigate their way out of London to keep an eye on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam has potential as a proper all-rounder, and he's a left-arm bowler. Will be absolute dynamite in the England squad in a couple of years' time. Add Jofra Archer to those two (once he's qualified) and we will have a pretty good bowling attack. We need a really quick bowler for next time we play in Oz. Dont think either of the currans fit that bill? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo Ram Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Just watched England's second team beat the Black Cats in the 20/20. Got me thinking what is England's strongest 20/20 team. I would go for: Hales Butler (WK) Root Bairstow Malan Morgan Stokes Woakes Willey Ali Rashid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phoenix Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Dawson's useful, but that looks a strong side. I see Derbyshire's new star signing Santner had figures of 2 - 0 - 32 - 0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the No 9 batsman scores more than the rest of the team added together, and the last-wicket partnership contributes more than 50% of the total. Kane Williamson really struggling for New Zealand too - not got his hundred yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnero Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 Shambles! Nothing learned from the Ashes whatsoever. Pretty much the same failing batting line up again, a seam bowling attack of 4 x 80mph right armers and a part time spinner who no longer gets us any runs, yet still plays in preference to Jack Leach. Bad times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PistoldPete2 Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 I thought stokes absence was the big deal which cost us the Ashes. So much for that. we just cant play Test cricket away from home. So many players not performing ,Cook Root , Bairstow ,stokes, Ali. well noone realy did anything apart from Overton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BramcoteRam84 Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 After all their claims of England ball tampering in the ashes as well!!! Another Aussie hypocrisy this week was the criticism of the South African fans for personally abusing the Aussie players!!! Talk about pot calling kettle!! Do they just close their ears at the Gabba every year?! I witnessed it 4 years ago, never heard abuse like it!! Tremlett in particular got a pounding! The Aussie fans are the worst by a country mile!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CWC1983 Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 Surely Smith cant survive this. Basically saying it was planned cheating. Unfortunately its another nail in Test match cricket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Aussie fans are the worst by a country mile!! I have to say, I am absolutely loving the whole thing. The Australians have always said they play hard but fair. Well that's now ******** and I couldn't be happier that it's happened to such an obnoxious group as Smith, Warner and Lehmann. They are a pathetic combination of thug and cry baby. I liked what Robert Key said earlier - that he is just sick of Steve Smith. Couldn't agree more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
