3 - @ECB_cricket become the 3rd team to name eight left-handed batsmen in a Test XI (West Indies, twice in 2000). Southpaws. #Ashes


Can't be too often that you have 3 blokes bowl right handed and bat left handed either (Borthwick, Broad, Stokes)

And i'm beaten to it by cabinet

How many of the WI can we name?
Gayle, Lara Chanders, Adams, Hinds, Amrbose + 2?

 

[morgieb]

Eight left handed batsman in the England side. KP, Bell and Bairstow the only right handers.

Interesting that all the bowlers bat left-handed but bowl right-handed.

 

[GIMH]

Rankin belting out God Save The Queen, that'll go down well in his homeland

None of them bowl left-handed, freakishly enough.

Haha, yeah, that's incredible.

What the hell is that roof on the new stand all about?

Doesn't look like it provides shade or shelter

Lara or am I missing a joke? Guess Ridley Jacobs as well.

 

[Jarquis]

Lara.

Just edited him in before I saw this but having had a quick look I can't actually see that he played in either of the two Tests they're on about

[GIMH]

Right, come on boys. A win here and we take it on away goals.

Yeah, I was thinking Jacobs, perhaps Lambert.

Ah, he was. Quite a few changes between the two Tests actually.
