I'm not. Terrible running.
I do. Good to see some love for Broad coming from your direction. Knew you'd come round eventually

What about the Phil Collins quote? As for Broad, I was initially in disbelief that anyone could be that awesome, but it appears that he is.I do. Good to see some love for Broad coming from your direction. Knew you'd come round eventually

Ruined by the Collins quote tbh. Should be more Stuart Broad based love.

Don't be. Never thought he was going to contribute.

We're clearly going to lose, at least make it interesting ffs. Hit the thing. Get the suffering over with.

The new look England batting line up does look good on paper, it is a shame that it is such a disaster. I think Bopara can't have too many more opportunities stashed up his sleeve for the time being. Denly is young and I think can be stuck with but Shah needs to pull his finger out sooner rather than later or he might have to go in the long term too.
The bowling attack is a strategic disaster, itbt, although the exit of Rashid has helped this. Bresnan is not an ODI first change, and while he plays as such, England suffer massive damage by going for runs whilst not taking wickets in anywhere between 6 and 10 overs.

Manee. I like it. (Y)
No sweat guys, only 7.10 an over required, and with a gun lower order of Mascheranas, Swann and Bresnan to come we've got this game sewn up easy.

The problem with this line of thinking is that for every Joe Denly that gets a shot despite having done nothing whatsoever to deserve it there's a Jonathan Trott that has been churning out copious amounts of List A runs for as long as anyone can remember but repeatedly gets snubbed.
I've no problem with selecting players who look the part (moreso in bowling though, in batting I like to see the figures). More specifically, I don't think players should have to score continuously for five straight seasons before getting a look in. Phil Hughes for example- a couple of seasons scoring plenty of runs, looks the part, no reason not to get him in the side.
But I don't know what the hell you've been watching if you think Joe Denly looks international class.

Morgan's is buffed by World Cup qualifiers for Ireland against prank-teams and the likes, too. Pretty sure he averages 34 or so for Middlesex in OD cricket.

Though 35 is a bit of a sneaky cut-off because it cuts out Shah (34.6), Bopara (33.9) and Denly (33).
