And if he can regain that sort of form he will continue to be a great foil for the 2, 178, 13, 0, 208 sort of scoring we see from our illustrious Test captain
You make a good point, Martyn is someone who I always see as someone who can steady the ship (if not fix it) if things aren't going too well. He also has the ability to make the ship fly (to continue the theme).
