flanker Jul 2018 12:27am, 18 Jul 2018 17,690 posts	Quote Pin flanker Didn't get to see the end of the match. Not that there was much doubt from the bits I did see. Is it coincidence that Rooooot is free to concentrate on his batting rather captaincy? Or did he just need a bit of R&R to find his form after an intense set of series?
Oscar the grouch Jul 2018 6:49am, 18 Jul 2018 729 posts	Quote Pin Oscar the grouch Hopefully the latter, Flanks. As for Rashid, that looked rather reminiscent of 'that' ball. Wonder if he will ever want to make a go of Test cricket. He seems in so much more control of his game these days, although I suppose the 4 ball that is ok every over in ODIs is not acceptable in the long form. Much as a Somerset boy wants Leach/Bess in the side, a good leggie is such a quantum leap from a finger spinner.
