Murray Goodwin and Sean Ervine, to some extent.......

Yeah he basically won the game for them with that spell of bowling.

Mamhiyo should be in the squad for Pakistan- i think he was in the top 5/6 runmakers this season.
He is a good leader with a cricket brain and strong mental strength.
Querl throws a lot , otherwise can swing a bat too.
However both are not fans of the unpredictable ZC- i mean who is :o

Dylan Nel started off with a 25 not out before the rain came a pouring down. He is based at Abbottskerswell in Devon. I really like the well this guy bats. Such finesse and easy stroke making. Lovely to watch

Brandon Diplock has had an electric start to his England season. According to play cricket websites he has got 9 wickets in two games for his club Milnrow in the extremely strong Central Lancs league. Also did well with the bat when sub proing for another club last weekend making 71.

These two boys, as I said, worth a watch

I was watching that game. I play in the CLL. I play for Rochdale CC but headed on down to watch him bowl. Looked good. Not rapid. Sharp enough though, probably in the mid to high 70's but he swung the ball. Looks a good prospect for sure
