Did you watch him bat today, against the best bowling attack in the world? He played the best cover drives I've ever seen in two balls. He absolutely times the shit out if it

Not much use if he only gets going once every 30 innings.

Alex Lees is seriously showing some balls up front.
Zack Crawley is world class when he gets going. He just needs to convert now
world class? Really? Even his career average at county level is only 30.

25 tests and averaging 26. That’s terrible. Bad even for Zimbabwean standards!
Gotta give him time. Thats all imo.

But wow England making me eat my words

Pope is a really good player, but he gets more opportunities than Reggie Chakabva :lol:
It can only be some quid pro quo :lol:

What I'll be watching avidly is how the Lions go against SA.

25 matches and 3 years is a lot of time!!

His County record is very poor too so I honestly don’t know what they are expecting him to do.

One of the guys I really rate is Harry Brook from Yorkshire. He's 23, unbelievably talented batsman. He seems to be off the England radar. He's got a big career ahead of him.

I could pick a better side than this Lions line up, they've got incredible depth at the moment. Not at the moment actually, they've got a production line of good players.
