asking a lot to turn yourself into one of the greatest all rounders of all time !!!cantersaddick said:
Largely agree. Useful player to have in and around the squad and on his day has a habit of making things happen. But probably not there yet. Should be looking to turn himself into a Kallis allrounder of he wants to play tests. But I imagine he is happy enough on the white ball circuit.lolwray said:
Curran is what we used to call a bits and pieces player see dermot Reeve and Derek pringlekillerandflash said:
With Mahmoud in place of Curran, you have a really long tail, that's the problemCharlton43 said:Curran is the weak link bowlers build pressure for him to jsut throw it away literally. I understand he has the potential to be a fantastic player but Mahmoud is such a bigger threat.
As a bowler does he have the potential to bowl a side out eg take 5 or 6 wickets in an innings? No
Can he score a test match century here and there ? Probably not
As an all rounder he doesn't compare to stokes or Ali or even Woakes
He should concentrate on the IPL circus
I might sound harsh but I know I am right2 -

Get Moeen on at the two lefties for heaven's sake, Curran is almost unbowlable at this point2

What will we do when Anderson decides to retire?0

57-16-128-91 -

Will be a huge blow but the bowling depth is far better than our batting. Woakes in England is different gravyAddick Addict said:What will we do when Anderson decides to retire?0 -
When fit. It's not all been down to injury but the last Test he played in was virtually a year ago.Pelling1993 said:

I see our openers are going nowhere.
16 runs off 11 overs.
As I type Sibley makes an attacking shot for 2. 18 runs off 12 overs. Run rate of 1.5. There is seeing off the new ball and then there is pedestrian cricket. Is John Crawley the batting coach.....0 -
India were 13/0 after 11 overs yesterday, makes us 3 runs ahead of them and then 14 off 12!golfaddick said:I see our openers are going nowhere.

I might've missed it... why the switch to red lettering from navy?0

Sibley is such a one dimensional batsman. Starve, starve, starve him of runs and then give him one for the trap.0

Sibley out, now 23-1. Indian total a long way off.0
-
Oh dear Hameed!0
-
Make that 23-2. Hammed out first ball!0
-
Bring back Crawley I say!3
-
That's awful Hameed0
-
Hameed out first ball, Siraj on a hat trick and it's all going horribly wrong0
-
That is rather an interesting field Kohli is setting0
-
Got to move Root up to 3 I think. Sibley not good enough, and to be fair I'm glad Crawley was rested, his confidence looked shot.
However where are our openers?0 -
ECB needs to have a good long look at what it wants, but please no more limited over cricket!!0
-
Hameed literally looked like what I would if I went out to bat number 3 in this test match. Zero foot movement, definite nerves.0
