Saj Mahmood.
I was there at Lords when he had his great 'spell' on debut. Thought we'd found a world beater. How wrong was I...

Anyone else feel their optimism and excitement of the 'new era' England draining away already, 20 minutes before the first test of the season, as memories of this rogue's gallery of inept incompetence intrudes....
And, frankly, after my fine innings of 3 not out* ** in the 'Auditors vs Finance' cricket game of 1991 I'm a little annoyed I didn't get a call up.
*I'm claiming not out, but actually deliberately hit my own wicket because a) I was scoring so slowly and b) I needed a piss.
** I came out to bat with a can of beer, which I placed behind the wicket and had a couple of tugs on between deliveries.

We've watched some utter chod down the years.
When Euro 2016 is on, we'll dampen enthusiasm by mentioning some of the great picks from the Graham Taylor era...

Buckle up lads. Toss lost and we've been inserted.
Cook out for 35, ending up on 9999 test runs?
