The Test Summer Begins

[Hilts]

England v Zimbabwe.

Crawley to score big then contribute next to nothing v India but still get 5 Tests.?

Lucky to hold his place.

I think Habeeb deserves another chance but doubt he will be wanted for Bazball.

Re: The Test Summer Begins

Jacob Bethell is the batsman waiting for either a drop in form, or an injury to any of the top 7.
Picking Bashir at home is odd. Fine for hard bouncy pitches away from home, but not convinced at home. Not sure what the answer is though, but wouldn't be surprised if Rehan Ahmed or his Farhan gets a call up during the summer.

Re: The Test Summer Begins

England put in and the top three score hundreds as they pile up nearly 500 for 3.

If there’s anyone on here who’s seven foot tall and can bowl a bit of spin, contact the England selectors, you’ll probably end up spending your winter in Australia with every chance of playing some test cricket!

Thought Bashir did OK today went for some tap, kept going and found his length and took 3 wickets.
