In a post match interview, Hollioake said that Crawley has been made available for the Blast QF by England. DBD was doing some work at the break, Joe was obviously playing and it is hopeful that Stewart will be fit too. At the start of the Blast we had Crawley at 3 with DBD & Muyeye opening and I would be inclined to do that once again. The side should look something like this assuming everyone is fit. I also hope that Gilchrist is selected. This would mean nine changes to the team we put out today:
DBD Muyeye Crawley Joe Denly Billings Evison Leaning Stewart Klaassen Parkinson Gilchrist
We haven't announced a squad yet which is slightly disconcerting as it might be that we are still waiting on the fitness of DBD and Stewart.
Livingstone 6’s are ridiculous - match over, unless a miracle happens - Kent didn’t put enough runs on, and mediocre bowling line up, sees us in huge trouble
They know lots of their fan base are Charlton fans and didn't want them worrying about Millwall and finals day on the same day as that might cause a few hospital visits
So they sacrificed finals day so the Charlton fans can put everything into thinking about Millwall
Comments
Lancs looking fairly strong with Luke Wood, Livingstone and Salt available.
gonna be 40 runs short of a decent total
We are going to have to bowl very well
Billings has become somewhat of a liability IMO.
Salt and Wells both out
Quite simple really - Livingstone with 85* (45) and 4-0-21-2 was the difference between us winning and losing.
Indeed you could make a very decent England ODI team from the players not chosen for the S Africa series.
Crawley
Salt (WK)
Pope
Hain
Lawrence
Livingstone
Willey
Dawson
Jordan
Luke Wood
Atkinson
