That was before we played three ODIs a week... anyway, he never really established himself until WC 1991. Then got jettisoned after a poor WC 1996.one thing i dont understand is why did Fairbrother only play 75 ODI's in a career expanding from 1987 to 1999 ? . why was he dropped from the English team so many times in the middle of his career? and the weird thing is he was never really out of form, he was always averaging near 40 till the end of career.
Yeah, we made do with 3 a year back then...That was before we played three ODIs a week...
Did Fairbrother do a lot in the 1996 & 1999 WC's though? I'm not quibbling about his overall record, but I don't recall him being a great advert for recycling players who were past their best.Pretty much.
Shame the same couldn't happen now with Ealham and Gough.
Yeh, im not saying he was great or anything. Didnt he score 90 in 30 balls in a 2020 last summer? Something always happens when hes batting. And uv gotta love that waddle to the crease when hes bowling lolWhat, with the bat?
Ecstatic.Happy?
