Yorkshire did do it. And to follow that look strong candidates to win division 1 again so hopefully we'll do the same.
I was with a client this morning whose partner is a cricket analyst for Sky. He's one of two that puts all the stats together for the pundits and commentators. He was ranting and raving at home last night, having done a load of work for today and looking at the weather forecast
Trott needs to rediscover his, err.. Inner Trott, he was immense against them in 2010/11, can't rely on Bell to dig us out all the time!
On "paper" our top six and Prior should be helping us post totals in excess of 350 plus (unless we're playing on seaming green top!) Cook was poor, KP hot and cold, Root was Monte Carlo or Bust.. I do like Bairstow, didn't agree with him being dropped for the 5th test. Prior's form is worrying, he's been pants now for well over a year, he needs to fine some form! Bowling department should take care of itself..
Agreed, that was indeed a superb knock but one innings out of how many? I don't for a second want him dropped, I just want him to find some form again!
As you've rightly said, several of our batsmen need to recover their form and do it before ****ing November
The Aussies will win this series 1-0, the rest of the ODIs look like they'll be washed out too, can't say I'm bothered.
