Will Allan Lamb Play For England This Summer?

[Son Of Coco]

It's not looking to the past, though - it's looking to try and put the past behind one. If what Ramprakash has done in the past were to be repeated, no-one would want his selection. However, if it were to be improved upon - drastically - then everyone would be delighted.

And the discussion re: Andy Caddick?

Actually I should have had this poll attached to the 'What is Englishness' thread.

How funny is this, Richard having a conversation with himself.

It's Good Richard vs Bad Richard.

So does the poll about Mark Ramprakash.

Ramprakash has a case though.

Ramprakash has a case though.

In that he's 38 and the future of English cricket?

Yeah same sort of thing, but Caddick was clearly a far better bowler than Ramprakash was batsman.

Typical does not equal bad.

The future for the next couple of years, possibly - if he could score brilliantly.

Impressed you know my face that well TBH.

Would be disappointed if you didn't look like your avatar now SOC...

Based on results I'd say in this case it does.

How much longer have I got this for Richard?

 

[GIMH]

How did this come about anyway?

This poll? Ohhh, my avatar...I lost a bet. Ages ago actually. 2005 Ashes I think it was.

More importantly, how did discussion about Mark Ramprakash get into my poll on whether Allan Lamb will play for England this summer? In my opinion, based on some fine beach cricket performances this summer, he has a decent chance

 

[Richard]

Based on results I'd say in this case it does.

So it'd be bad should Ramprakash be picked and average 60 for 2 or 3 years?

Should maybe move 'em TBH. Anyway, thought the spoof which evolves to serious is good myself TBH.

You know when you put it up, not me!

I was talking more about England results since 2005...not Ramprakash himself.

If he averages 60 then obviously that'd be a good thing. Although I'd still be a bit concerned about where you were going after that. It kind of hints that there's no vision for the future...the part which I was attempting to indicate was typically English.

I'm afraid I can't discuss this any further though until you devote at least one post to the topic of this thread.

I didn't write the date down.

 

[GIMH]

I reckon it was around the same time I put mine up, so when I change mine you can change yours
