The present England cricket team is not a test team, just a bunch of twenty overs a side cricketers, who have not got a clue how to play five day cricket. Very true. Baseball cricket has ruined the actual game of cricket. A ton of middle order whackers and a load of medium pace bowlers who keep run rates down instead of taking wickets. What I would give for a butcher, an atherton even, a tresco…. |

Not strictly English cricket but I loved watching Zaheer Abbas and Sadiq Mohammed for Gloucestershire who could both bat all day.
