Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

On the BBC feed, somebody has just asked why we could try Ali as an opener, that;s not right is it?

We did; he's not technically correct enough to open. See also Hales. :)

And this is the problem; with the advent of hit and wish cricket, good technique is less of a prized commodity, so fewer players are produced.

We tried him in India and it didn't go well. Short pitched bowling isn't his favourite so he would be peppered with it in Australia

Someone on Sky used 'Tom Westley' and 'short' in the same sentence. Not heard that done before.

I heard TMS trying to claim last night that Moeen was a better all rounder than Botham, Imran Khan, Kapil Dev and Richard Hadlee.
