Shame about Chris Jordan's batting, a better player than averaging 18 in div 2

by nickcricket 9/12/2017 1:05:14 PM
Highest Div 1 averages over the last 3 years by players with 0 FC hundreds:

Kyle Abbott - 37.80
Sam Curran - 32.68
Will Rhodes - 27.12

Yeah Archers only been denied a ton by being sent in at 10/11 all the time

by dez dezzy 9/12/2017 1:02:24 PM
@nickcricket Jofra Archer running him close

by SDHoneymonster 9/12/2017 1:01:45 PM
Sam Curran the best batsmen in England without a First Class Hundred?

by nickcricket 9/12/2017 1:01:16 PM
Stoneman for England... wait a minute...

*surprised to see

Looked a decent ball from Brooks, Burns didn't look too happy mind.

by Haystack_Jnr 9/12/2017 12:59:30 PM
Surprised to Freddie (not that one) listed to come in at 11, he bats at 3 or 4 for the 2nds

@dezdezzy Good odds that is more than the Yorkshire top four score between them

by nickcricket 9/12/2017 12:58:38 PM
Not enough Rory, not enough :)

by dez dezzy 9/12/2017 12:57:58 PM
Didn't catch the dismissal but Burns had been flashing at wider ones all morning, wouldn't be surprised if he finally nicked one.

by SDHoneymonster 9/12/2017 12:57:46 PM
Too many 50s...Not a problem in the Yorkshire lineup I tell you

With Jeets & Woakes in the side and the pitch doing a bit, here's hoping for an upset at Edgbaston

by dez dezzy 9/12/2017 12:56:09 PM
If anything Philander stuggles at County Level, I suspect because he 'looks after' himself

by nickcricket 9/12/2017 12:53:50 PM
@nickcricket He's just an honest county seamer who's incredibly accurate and hits the seam regularly, like Philander or McGrath. Everyone knows he'll be rubbish at Test level.

by SDHoneymonster 9/12/2017 12:51:46 PM
...Reporters at five grounds tomorrow and Thursday... Edgbaston, Taunton, Kia Oval, Uxbridge, Worcester....

by David Hopps 9/12/2017 12:51:25 PM
@SDHoneymonster And he didn't play against Gary Ballance

by nickcricket 9/12/2017 12:50:26 PM
As much as 24.65 v lefties? Useless.

Amazing stuff at Edgbaston. Think Woakes just got an inside edge off Harmer and the keeper managed to kick it past slip.

by SDHoneymonster 9/12/2017 12:44:45 PM
Chris(t) Woakes in?

Ashwin, 9 overs, 0 maidens, 0 wickets v Leics. Who would have thought it?

by dez dezzy 9/12/2017 12:36:00 PM
Burns a bit like Stoneman has been held back by the 'white ball focus' the Lions play 80% white ball Cricket so he doesn't get any face time with the setup

by nickcricket 9/12/2017 12:31:25 PM

Criticism has been that he doesn't go big often enough, but a player that scores a 50 every 2-3 innings (like Root) should be welcomed with open arms surely?
