Well, Gregory is meant to be a much better batsman than that, despite little evidence to the contrary.Quote:

Another partnership between Ballance and Rashid to forge a lead. Perhaps it's best to keep Ballance where he is after all.
Surrey eight down now, can't leave it to Batty and Wilson every time. Worst thing is they're making Patel look like Bishen Bedi. :@
I see Kent got home last night having been 35-5 when I made my prediction of doom. Match finished shortly before 11 pm which is ridiculous, especially mid-week. It was too late for me and I was watching at home!
Ballance could realistically bat as high up as 3 he'd probably still make the runs.
Nice stuff by Somerset. They're just short of batsmen in general. Compton and Kieswetter will return in less than a month but Peterson and Buttler are both playing in the CT.
Well he was a youth opener and he always opened in Zimbabwe domestic cricket as well, even after he entrenched himself in the Yorkshire middle order, so I don't think batting higher up would really hurt him at all. I think he bats where he does more because of the unsuitability of the top four to batting lower than his own strengths - so for balance basically (hardy ha ha), but I would like to see him bat above Gale at the very least.Quote:

What a season for Chris Jordan, so far, his highest-score now.
Rashid in some nick this season, thank god the middle/lower order are playing well.
Virus getting called up to the Champions Trophy definitely wouldn't have been something they were preparing themselves for in the pre-season. I wonder if they'll pick up a replacement overseas player for that period. Someone like Brownlie could be a good signing; a quality bat who will already be in the country, pretty acclimated due to the Tests and not involved in the Champions Trophy.Quote:

did it against the second best bowler in england too #hogan4evr
18* so far from Bres. England will be kicking themselves to have missed out on these crucial runs.
Great anti-penultimate over from Glamorgan today. Any idea who bowled it? Sreesanth?
4nb,b . 4nb 2nb . 8nb 1 2b . . .
8nb?
Got hit for 6 and was a NB I think.
