I expect Josh Inglis will run for the Liberals in WA when his career is over.

There were rumours Andrew Strauss would be offered a seat in the Lords by David Cameron, but it came to nothing.

Born on 99* and thinks he hit a ton Zak Crawley might be interested in running for the Tories in Tunbridge Wells or somesuch place in later years. Need to teach all us plebs the value of "hard work" and "self reliance".

By being as **** as he is and holding a place in the English test side for 5 years.

I don’t pay attention to County but are England’s other options that bad? (I know you had Sibley and Burns but at least they have good not awful domestic records How the **** does an opening bat (who can’t even bowl part time) make it to a top 8 test side, let alone become a mainstay, with this record.

This is the real thing England to save test cricket from.

Appreciate I was giving in to my dark side talking about Zak but this thread isn't the place to debate if he is a good cricketer or not.

Zak Crawley represents the Eng cricket team mate.......its incredibly unfair to suggest that he does or should represent a whole class of people.

Not sure there is anyone myself included that wasn't calling for Zac to be dropped a year or so ago. But I do not believe for a second that he held his place in the side because of familly wealth.......not when you've got Stokes and BMac in charge ffs, very much working class the both of them.

It was repeatedly said that the management saw something in him, can't say that I did but based on at least his recent returns perhaps they know a bit more than me (and most of us tbf)
