I see the England ODI and 20/20 squads have been announced, no KP, which was expected, but also no Prior, which surprised me, he is definitely in form and is a quick scoring batsman, so I find that a bit puzzling, but good for SA.
772 @ superbokspringJan:
Yes had seen that stat super, Philander’s seventh five wicket haul and he’s only played 10 tests. There are many folk out there who question is ability at the highest level but he just keeps on answering back by taking the wickets, seems like he is just going to be one of those players that will always have to be taking lots of wickets to keep the detractors at bay, there was reference on the cricket site to his ‘slightly disapoint returns in the first two tests’, gosh thats crazy two tests and it gets referred to yet others like Morkel were in a bad run of form for a long time and kept getting picked. What I do like to see as well from Vernon is he is now also living up more to his tag as an allrounder, scored nicely in both innings of last test and also got good runs in the warm-up game before that. His bowling is obviously more important but to have another genuine allrounder in the team will mean a lot going forward.
781 @ Baaiekatte-Jan:
Yip, it’s rather strange that Prior is not in, hey.
781 @ Baaiekatte-Jan:
Not sure why they have done that but they have set the precident for a while of not viewing Prior as a one day player which is strange as he is such a good batsmen and I would have said initially was not the best of keepers but made his way into the team on the back of being a good batsmen who could keep wicket, now his keeping has improved as well. His replacement Kieswetter is in my mind not as good at keeping but can be a quick scoring batsmen who on his day can come of spectacularly, although think Kieswetter is not consistent enough.
784 @ BullscotBokJan:
Ja, hy is ‘n ander wetter, daai Kieswetter, wat hulle gekies het… om die bal te wetter…
Hehehe
777 @ superbokspringJan:
Thats another strange one from the England selectors, Bairstow has just shown in this last test match what he is capable of and should have been in the ODI squad to play SA, after all he is in the World T20 squad, this would have given him vital time in the shortened version of the game against some of the very best bowlers around, think that would be better for Bairstow than going back to his county and maybe making more runs but against lesser bowlers. Nice to see Luke Wright in T20 squad, he is maybe not best suited for longer version of the game but the T20 is tailor made for him – performs well in short bursts.
780 @ BullscotBokJan:
I thought Taylor was tailer made… and Wright was almost made right… in short bursts
hehehe
783 @ grootblouBokJan:
On the whole they have got it right but the England selectors have made some mistakes recently and maybe it didn’t cost them the series but perhaps affected the margin of victory. Would the win at the Oval have been so comprehensive if Steve Finn, a proven wicket taker, was playing then. Then no top spinner at Headingly if they thought Swann wasn’t good enough why did they bring him back for Lords, they could have gone for Monty Panesar who is good form now if they didn’t think Swann was up to it, as it was they got lucky and Pietersen filled the spinner role quite well taking those wickets at Headingly, maybe helped earn the draw. The selectors have to be praised though for picking Bairstow who did so well in this last test.
