I'd be dropping Stoneman before Fletcha. That's not to say that Fletcha doesn't deserve dropping. But their seasonal averages are very similar (27 vs 25) and their runs scored are very similar (189 vs 197). Ultimately Stoneman is about to turn 38. There's zero future with him, and I'm not sure why we signed him. He should be the first to go.
I'm annoyed at how quickly we've dropped Orr. He was meant to be a huge talent when we signed him and now he's not making the squad. Drop either of them, just get Orr back in the team.
Tbf, I gave up a long time ago. 333 on day one was miles too many on this wicket. I've been spending the day watching the live stream of the women rather than the men. Even if we're knocked them over for 100 in the second innings, we'd have still lost this. That big partnership between Haynes and LPW was irrelevant, aside from delaying the end of the game. We've made such a huge mess with the second overseas slot this season, and it's infuriating.
Yeah, it is mission impossible but they are professionals and we moan if the Saints players just give up. At least Hutton is in my fantasy team.
I don't think the new owners will be impressed with this at all. I feel they will want their own coaches brought in at some point.
I'm going to suggest this will be the only time in Sonny's career that he finishes as our top scorer.
