Arjun
Cricketer Of The Year
I don't know what went wrong, but the form of James Troughton in the matches that he played was awful. I had heard he has a lot of potential and as I had seen, he's also a good fielder, but with such a disastrous start to his career, every expert gave up on him. Comments like "I hope he stays in Warwickshire" (Boycott), "He's not good enough to continue!" (Deano) and "Last chance" (Ravi Shastri) became common and now he's gone. I usually support the younger generation, bu even I had lost all hope.
That does leave question marks about England's younger generation of players. One can accept it, even at their best, the established (and best) players (except for Gough and Thorpe) are not that great, and against the Australians, pathetic. But if the younger players are that bad, it's not good for English cricket, is it?
