Yeah, there's a certain dignity required to do these things well. None of the best pundits/commentators I can think of ever specifically single out a player and say they think he's outright crap. It's fine to criticise individual shots/actions, or to say you don't think someone's performed well enough to stay in the side or justified inclusion at this level. But to come out and say things in the way Vaughan does, just...poor show.
Bopara will come in for Eoin. I still don't think his technique is that bad but he should obviously be out of the picture for now. He needs to actually go play fc cricket.
I imagine that would be the opening volley.
So theoretically BCCI could call England to India for a 2 test series quickly, beat them 2-0 get back to no.1 and claim everything is fine. Hmm.. wonder what Srinivasan would be thinking?
Very worried about Bell. Was embarrassing seeing the English media fapping over him being one of the world's best players of spin last summer when he was up against an out of form Indian attack on non spin friendly wickets.
but he can hit teh six0rz and teh reverse sweep!
Not with the predictions that I did. Even if it's 3-0 Pakistan, England are still numero uno.Haha, this is the second time you've completely missed the fact that people are talking about the official ICC rankings.England lose their spot if they don't win the next match.
KP looks worse than Bell to me.
Well then Spark is a misleading **** then.
Simple - let him open with Cook & stuff Strauss somewhere down the order (he's been crap with the bat for some time now). Bell's strength has always been against seamers, not spinners - quite why the opposite conclusion has been reached recently is a mystery.
Hey, that I heard from someone elseWell then Spark is a misleading **** then.
haha tell me about it. My school team is 9/11 Indian and our arch rivals have 4-5 Pakistani guys including the captain. It's like a mini India Pak game every time we play.
The trouble I have with Morgs is that there's so very much going on in his initial trigger movements. He steps across, crouches and then pivots on his back foot before playing. He actually does (when in nick) end up playing pretty straight, but because he's so "busy" it only takes one of his tics to be fractionally off and he loses his off stump.
I actually think their best four available bowlers are all spinners at this point. So weird.It's amazing how Pakista never runs out of match winning bowlers. Congratulations on a well deserved victory against the no 1 team
