Did you know anything about the players in the team ? The one's that are spoken of a bit.
Ed Barnard got a 100 at number 7. With Worcestershire.
Our promising quick, Kirsten, fractured his lumbar spine and that really hurt us as we were counting on him and Williams who bowled well.

tbh I don't know much about many of them. They're all a bit too young, Velani was highly thought of at Essex from a real early age but I'm not sure he's progressed quite as they'd liked. Thakor broke into a weak leicestershire team last season and did well but he was injured before the first test - I'd guess he is the most developed of the English group. Stone played a few games for Northants last year without much success. Griffiths is rated highly at Lancashire and has played quite a lot of decent second team and league cricket.
I wouldn't say any of guys (maybe Thakor) have been talked about too much, but we're at the start of a world cup cycle so most of the players are pretty young and still someway from breaking into county cricket.

Fair enough. We've only picked people thinking about the next WC for our ODI squad. Most of the test team don't qualify. Only our keeper and the 12th man quick does.
Heard of Thakor. Pity about his injury. There was an article on BBC recently where Alec Stewart highlighted him as one two watch for 2013.

A great day two for the England bowlers - I really don't know much about any of them bar Miles, but it looks like Oli Stone used his options pretty well. Would hope we can close it out from here.

Tremlett on the indoor nets at the Oval must be the most terrifying thing ever. Thank God they've got the mats out to reduce the bounce.

I can remember 1996 vividly.
It doesn't make sense for anyone born that recently to be toilet trained, let alone playing international cricket.

I know a girl born in 1995 who became eligible to vote over the weekend. How does that make you feel?
I became eligible to vote in the past 2 weeks as well.

Yeah the fact that and her are very close in age came up once before; I can't actually remember why though.

Wait, that means you registered when you were 12?
Actually, that's not at all surprising. It explains this too.
