Fuck me can anybody in this FC system bat? Bowlers are just massively dominating the games.

Apart from the well known names, nobody knew seems to be doing it with the bat, at all

The B-Train is saving the innings for the Rhinos. He can obviously hit a long ball as he has a 6, but he can also bat for time (look at his strike rate).

Late inclusion into the Test squad I wonder? He is the fast bowling allrounder we need.

Looks good. Good economy rate as well with the ball from his 10 overs, so mustn't be giving too much away either.
Love the fact he can stick there but evidently hit the bad ball to the boundary.

I know Flakeman seems to have seen him play

From this round of matches it appears as if the Don is the next cab off the rank. Watch out Waller, Moor, Hami, and Willow! :lol:

I wouldn't be too fussed if Tiripano played instead of Waller.

Tiripano as opener is the perfect replacement for a Mawoyo at the top, ideally. If the selectors implement it, it would be the left field genius!

20 year old batsman Chibvongodze 39 runs on debut at number 8. Not part of RS ... just warming bench for Malcolm and PJ.

Bruce James has barely bowled. If he does it's short spells.

He's only 24. Surely he has a fitness/stamina problem. If not then a long standing injury that he never fully recovered from.

Either way not the kind of make up to be in FC cricket. Can consider making the side either as a specialist bat(not hard) and just roll his arm.

But there has to be an explanation for him bowling short spells, and few overs. Not usual if you take the new ball.

Plenty of fast bowlers are used in short spells
