Trichromatic Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 He became 2nd batsman to score 5,000 runs in ODIs for England. He overtook Paul Collingwood in last match. I was really surprised to see that only 2 players have scored 5000 runs for England and Bell is at top. And guess what who has scored most List A runs? No, not Sachin, but 2 batsmen from England at the top http://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/content/records/282830.html
MCGGG Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 bell is medicore player No, he used to be a mediocre player, but as Australia has shown, Batsmen take time to mature, as of now he's as dangerous as they come IMO.

HippoSucks Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 I would argue that he was doing great an year back and has lost his form now. He has 4-5 centuries in ODIs, by the way.
Pagalpanti Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 Bell is England's version of Jayawardene, has blossomed well opening for them.
HippoSucks Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 What is list A runs? Runs in domestic one-day cricket.
Gollum Posted January 25, 2015 Posted January 25, 2015 Shows how seriously Poms take these ODIs. :cantstop:
Shivaji bhonsle Posted January 25, 2015 Posted January 25, 2015 More than Bell, its Moen Ali who is giving the necessary push. They historically had some technically correct opening batsman, but Moen Ali seems to be giving the necessary attacking approach .
YCCC Posted January 25, 2015 Posted January 25, 2015 Says it all about England in ODIs. A player who always flatters to deceive but gets away with it because the analysts, English ones especially, prefer to purr over his technical correctness being the best they've ever seen. Not enough match winning knocks and goes missing when his team really need him
Magneto Posted January 25, 2015 Posted January 25, 2015 5000? Lol! That's so weak and lame Because they don't play ODIS. Pietersen played some 104 Tests and 130 ODIs.

HippoSucks Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 england should repalce him with hales Replace who, Bell? I don't think he is being dropped any time soon.
adi B Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 Bell is a solid one day batsman,not great but good enough but sometimes he gets confused batting according to situations.
