ThorntonRunner Jan 2022 11:23am, 4 Jan 2022 5,620 posts	0 ThorntonRunner Are all our bowlers made of glass? Robinson and Woakes both unavailable with niggles, Wood rarely plays more than 2 games in a row, Anderson and Broad (understandably) now having to be used carefully. Stokes doesn't seem to have been able to bowl flat out for a year or so, and of course Archer is long-term knackered

SPR Jan 2022 11:26am, 4 Jan 2022 36,089 posts	0 SPR Would be interested in some number of overs stats for bowlers worldwide. Probably needs average spell length and other stuff as well.
