FBU

International Debutant
Because they don't consider him good enough to be selected. He wants to play.
Strauss doesn't want Broad or Anderson to play with the white ball, no matter what the selectors think.

In their last 2 years of their ODI careers

Anderson 47 wickets at 22.97 econ 4.77 s/r 31.3
Broad 30 wickets at 42.83 econ 5.59 s/r 45.9

Does Anderson not to win a WC? Needs to make a few unsubtle statements to the press.

Broad is not the correct man for LOI, but Anderson is. Anderson-Woakes-Plunkett-Rashid-Moeen-Stokes is a decent bowling lineup.

Has anyone actually seen Pollard do anything apart from strut around without producing the goods? Such an overrated player imo

Disgraceful, should dock them 50 points from next years championship and take all internationals away for 10 years as punishment.
Think that's the right course of action here FJ, sure the Durhamers here would take it stoically as they always do......

I've always rated him the least out of all the Windies LO allrounders. Undeniable talent, but I'd take a Holder or a Braithwaite over him any day.

Did I hear right today, Bairstow in for Roy to open in the ODI tomorrow? Hope he'll do a decent job as deserves to be in the team imo. Not sure about him opening though.

Edit: checked BBC sport ?

The cheek of Morgan though......

"Consistency is the area where we have most room for improvement. We have a huge amount of potential, but producing that on a consistent basis is important for our development."

When was the last time he scored any runs? Consistently poor.

Eyes not spreadsheets
752 runs @ 53.71 this year striking at nearly 100 suggests that you set a very high bar to call someone "not poor".

He did go through a shocking run of form tbf, but hes well past that now and as someone else said.....probably the second best bat in the side.
