jimbo jones Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 A coach with success at the international level, hopefully, translates well to the county game. Happy with that appointment, now for some players. Reggie Greenwood 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbo jones Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 2 year extension for Scrimshaw. In his interview Arthurr talked about the potential of the young bowling attack, hopefully he can get at least a couple of them to really kick on this coming season. rynny 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arthur will be on twice as much as Hughton so there will be pressure to succeed now. I hope there is no need for Cork now. Toxic character. jimbo jones 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd imagine he will be in charge of everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbo jones Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 Leus Du Plooy playing red ball cricket in South Africa and enjoying himself more than his summer in England. Scores in the 90’s and 80’s in his last game. Hopefully comes back here with renewed confidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbo jones Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 Mickey Arthur’s first signing... Left handed opening bat, played for him with Pakistan. Signed for all formats. 4 test centuries to his name, 3 of those centuries came in consecutive innings against 3 different team's England, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.

sage Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 Right position, right nationality. Hope he scores runs and helps engage the local community who aren't currently attending games. Reggie Greenwood and jimbo jones 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as he doesn’t catch the Derbyshire disease and turn to ? like so many others this could be a great signing and hopefully galvanise the batting line up and like @sage says could get interest from the local Pakistani community which would be good. jimbo jones 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nearly 1500 likes too, Anuj Dal signing a new deal got 65 ? Seems a popular figure amongst Pakistan cricket fans, certainly would be great if he encourages a few to come down.
