Norwood's on Fire
Watching Strauss here, hits a second 50, and yet if he hadn't tonned up in last game in NZ I don't think we'd ever see him in a Test again. It's got me thinking, what other examples are there of players who have been supposedly very much on their last legs, pulled something out of the bag and then gone on to do some great things?
An example that springs to mind immediately for me is Hayden; seem to remember there was talk of him being dropped around the time of the 5th Ashes Test in 05, he scored a much slower than usual ton and hasn't really looked back since (though I think he may have been dropped from the OD side for a short while).
Thoughts?
