Bairstow's going mental I tell yah!!!!

 

[BoyBrumby]

That's an absolute howler from Cottrell.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Denly can surely wallop them

 

[James90]

The Windies have looked bloody ordinary this game. Were never in it.

 

[MW1304]

I see Billings has still done nothing of note in international cricket.

Not even 'young' anymore, he's 27!

 

[Starfighter]

Denly can surely wallop them

He batted like a nervous no. 8 in the high quality intense Big Bash environment.

He batted like a nervous no. 8 in the high quality intense Big Bash environment.

He probably needed a change of scenery.

Really need to bin Billings to be honest. Has had so many opportunities to perform and has never taken them. I feel for him to some extent in that he seems to carry the drinks more often than he plays, but there are so many players who deserve a chance than him, and I am convinced that because are strongest batting xi is almost untouchable, the selectors just pick the same people on the sidelines over and over again not caring too much if they perform or not when they decide to give them the odd game

Malan, for one should be starting ahead of him, considering he's performed in T20Is from the get-go. The likes of Livingstone and Hain (who averages 55+ in List A cricket btw) should be given a look-in soon. I know Livingstone looked out of his depth two years ago against South Africa but I'd back him to have improved in international cricket now

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Obey McCoy added to the squad.

If this bowling is nurtured, it can do something.

It's too raw and green for me; like a guava.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

One more thing:

I'd like to see Pooran take the gloves from Hope in T20Is. I'm not confident with him in the outfield.

 

[Andy1993]

Morgan falls for 1 what a suprise!! 29-3

 

[mr_mister]

Irish novelty

 

[Andy1993]

who are the spare batsman in this squad? Willey is too high at 7

 

[trundler]

Every English batsman bar Root and maybe Morgan has one debilitating weakness. Hope to see spectacular lollapses in the WC. They've no doubt mastered flat wicket batting though.

What the **** is the point of Bishoo? Fine leg needs to be finer.

Yeah, I agree. We were promised a lot from him, but he just hasn't lived up to his billings

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Just as I suspected: a freaking hard, green guava.

 

[BSM]

Never two on there ffs. Not only has Billings struggled to put bat on ball, I think he's run Root out as well

 

[BSM]

He's making up for it here though to be fair

 

[Andy1993]

wow a collector's item! A Sam Billings 50!!

Need Willey to tee off now as well, get us to 160-170

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Billings is the best 'B' named keeper in England.
