Tend to agree, would be tempted to even say if Elty doesn't fire with the bat (as has been for a while now), he is being picked for his bowling, in which case I wonder is he better than Meth? And Matsi to open? (Based on his form?)

Really don't like your sour tone (suspect you are Bangladesh still smarting from the humbling we gave you), but I do think you have a valid point. I suspect we feared McCullum and Guptil hence we opted to bat first, but you do have a point, under normal circumstances we should have fielded first...

Jarvis is bowling too straight, needs to attack the off stump more

[Flower power]

Should we revert to opening with spin .........

It is you I feel sorry for. You take a perverse Glee in winding people up and Zimbabwes Demise

Forget about Matsi opening. You'll only take him backwards.

Anyway, Anusha aside can't seem to understand Sir Taylor's decion to bat first this morning. HSC is a no brainer, you bat second

Do we ever get an all round perfomance from our team asin

1.Top order firing
2. Middle order firing
3. Tail wagging enough
4. Bowlers giving a five star show
5. Clinical fielding .

Hope this imagination will be real some day .
