JustMike Posted 9 September, 2009 Author Share Posted 9 September, 2009 i thought he was called up to the squad initially, just dont get why he isnt playing. Nor do i get why Prior is batting that far up the order or why Rashid hasnt played since the 1st game !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lets B Avenue Posted 9 September, 2009 Share Posted 9 September, 2009 They had to name an initial squad of 30 for the Champions Trophy which he was in. This was then reduced to 15 last week and he didn't make the cut. Whilst I would love to see him playing today, you do have to take into account the bowling standards he has scored against and his lack of form in the CC. Notts excepted. Could he do it against Brett Lee and Johnson? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could he do it against Brett Lee and Johnson? lack of form? It wasnt that long ago he was smashing it to all parts but as per usual, we dont pick out form players. Id rather see him in the side rather that bopara, shah or bresnan, and even collingwood. The guys we have at present cant do it against those bowlers, Lumb and others should be given a chance.

I said "lack of form in the CC" not the 20/20. He was even dropped last month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
