Vijy Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 Stokes has quite an ordinary T20 record. Rather surprising in a way, given his set of skills.
rkt.india Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 We should seriously institute a Kolpak-like scheme and steal some world-wide players a la England. :) can easily poach Henry for WC who isnt selected by NZ.:two_thumbs_up:
MCGGG Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 Patto is prob. the best of the young guns. Would like to see him preserved for Tests as much as possible. Starc and Hazelwood are v. good ODI bowlers as well' date=' so it might be better to re-integrate Patto slowly, post-WC. The ODI game is 2.5 times the length of the T20.[/quote'] Only played a handful of first class games before gaining test duties, almost unheard of in Australia.
MCGGG Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 Stokes has quite an ordinary T20 record. Rather surprising in a way' date=' given his set of skills.[/quote'] Not in the England WC squad which is surprising.
Vijy Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 can easily poach Henry for WC who isnt selected by NZ.:two_thumbs_up: :two_thumbs_up: Yay. Henry is damn good. Clear case of selectors being seduced by Milne's red-hot pace. Henry is one useful lower-order thumper too. Btw, has anyone heard of this guy: http://www.espncricinfo.com/south-africa-domestic-2014-15/content/current/player/327830.html Got phenomenal stats in every form of the game. Didn't know where to post it - could open new topic, I guess. I remember seeing de Kock's stats about 2 yrs ago when he had a FC avg of 60+ while serving as keeper and being similarly freaked out.
rkt.india Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 Henry is no sloth in terms of pace, does hit 140s.
Vijy Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 Henry is no sloth in terms of pace' date=' does hit 140s.[/quote'] True. Baffling non-selection on the whole. Would love to poach some of the non-playing Oz pacers too. The likes of Patto, NCN, Sandhu, etc (who won't be in the squad prob) are still better than our bunch.
Vijy Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 Apart from Faulkner, the Stars don't have international level batsmen/allrounders next. Hastings can thump a few, but he's not a bona fide allrounder. This partnership will be crucial.
Vijy Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 And Rim is yet to enter the picture; very clever T20 bowler.

Vijy Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 The Show (match) is ending.. or rather, the Big Show is on.
MCGGG Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 How many matches are left ? Worth a sticky ? Not even at finals yet.
Old guy Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 Not even at finals yet. Are games gonna be everyday or mixed with first class matches ?
MCGGG Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 Be good to see Head get in the England WC15, if they're serious about winning the England selectors need to swallow their pride.
MCGGG Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 Are games gonna be everyday or mixed with first class matches ? Not sure TBH, probably no need to sticky, someone always refreshes the thread anyway.
