Curran needs a big daddy hundred here to be taken seriously
Opportunity to make a real statement innings here. Set himself up for the season, and make sure that his name is in the mix. At his age, he needs to make something happen sooner rather than later.
A lot of batters peak in their 30's but our geniuses think we're rebuilding so don't really want to look at anyone over 23 unless they're already in the mix. They're going to waste another few years going down that rabbit hole.

That's probably fair, but as an uncapped 28 year old anywhere in the world, time is not your friend.

K-Long's red ball record over the last 2 years has been very strong. Another rapid hundred from him here.

Can't see him being a dependable test player. Happy to be proved wring. I guess masvaure and Gumbie are now our incumbents and haven't done too much wrong

Alex Russell took a battering in his bowling figures. Almost 7 an over

Can’t see Eagles winning anything this year if they persist with picking five genuine number 11’s.
