Not a bad knock in the situation from Denly. 20 from 17 having faced seven balls of Malinga.0

Denly opens the bowling for Kent in white ball cricket. Really pleased the Morgan or the England management let him do what's been successful for him, especially when forced to bat down the order which isn't his natural position1

Yeah, because noone has seen him bowl before !0 -
You can't be a mystery spinner called Joe Denly, mystery spinners have got to have long and unpronounceable names!The_President said:

What a legend the man is, a true Man of Kent. Keep your grubby mitts off of him, Slurry.1 -
Leg spin
8 overs - 7 for 30!2 -
Amazing how T20 has made leg spinners an essential part of a bowling attack, when they had been virtually extinct in this countryAddickted2TheReds said:Leg spin

Even more so when you consider that the reason they became virtually extinct was their lack of economy in the first class game, too many 'four balls.' Yet they are thriving in a format where the batsman tries to get after the bowler from the off.killerandflash said:

Unfamiliarity perhaps? Will there be a bit of 'second season' syndrome for Joe the bowler? I know that it will not be Joe's actual second season obviously but as a front line bowler in all formats it effectively will be arguably.0 -

These days if you do that you get clobbered. It's unpredictability which makes it harder for the modern day batsman to smack a ball, and leg spinners have that if they can turn it both ways. The lack of pace on the ball seems to help too.
