    Nice to see Dan Brown come back a bit after going out in 3 over, so big for him to finish top 10, and would have been disappointing if he'd dropped down to abot 40th after being a story for awhile.

    Well done Woakes, as much as I still worry about that pace, he's a redoubtable cricketer, who certainly in England can still do good numbers. Oh and all the Bash hate, does seem to be forgetting he's actually bowled quite well in his Test career, but yeah I know he averages 50 in first-class...

    As I say if I shopped around I probably could have got better, but Sky was the account I had money in, and I took the 12 places, which would get me £50. He's done nowt wrong so far.

    At 350-1 it's still alright, small stakes mean I can bet a lot of randomers, occasionally works out.

    I think anyone that can get it to 6 under can still win, so don't quite think it's impossible, but put a gun to my head now, Xander would be my pick.

    Just looked, "cash-out not available on this bet" for some reason, saves me a decision, only bet 70p e-w, not like it's making me rich.

    I happily have seen a lot of him, do I cash out is the question, it's very much the wimps thing to do.

    You just know Burns, Horschell or Henley will win it.:laugh:

    With those dropped shots, genuinely think the first 12 all have a decent chance here, considering Scott and Thomas are Accomplished players.

    More Collingwood, the little he bowls, but in reality we know, (apart from RIS) who he is in this scenario.

    Could probably have got better than 350-1 on Lawrence if I'd shopped around, but only did bets at all because my free bet-builder on the Euros final came in so Skybet it was. I like Saffies in the Open, they can generally play in the wind. Good thing he is doing well because the rest of my bets...

    If Pope is bell, I guess Brook is KP, I'm all for resurrecting the 2005-2011 batting line-up by proxy.

    It's not on cricket, though more on our terrible over rate, takes points off us, I think we deserve it for that.

    Yeah I kinda agree, Hartley or Ahmed may mean we don't have to pick Woakes for his batting, coz his rat's arse bowling isn't it. Yet Bashir has done okay, but he needs to learn outside of Tests, not sure where though.

    I have never been the biggest fan of Potts, but there was a lot of talk of how he'd improved his game recently, starting on the A tour. So I was interested to see how he'd go. Guess we'll have to wait until the Third Test.

    I've been to have chips in a pub, not sure how I'm to react, yes we're better with batting, worse with bowling, similar results except for one great series. Actually odd he's hardly mentioned in this but Duckett maybe the biggest success story. Bairstow was great at the start of Bazball, but...

    No, and we may not have been in the situation where we had too, they were great fun, but generally coz we threw our wickets away in first innings. Anyway, I am and will just remain butthurt over the Jimmeh dropping, and when we probably need a seamer to seal up and end and let the others bowl...

    Yeah I get the Pope thing, but maybe he just grew into England, maybe it's Bazbeline who knows. The New Zealand series was one of the more frustrating ones of the lot, honestly I don't care a lot about outplaying but not winning a series when we should have. The Pakistan series is the one...

    It's one of the things I'd say was good, but as tangible results it's not made much difference that I can see. Neither of those three are World-beaters anyway ATM, though they flatter to be, and Pope was pre-Bazball wasn't he?

    I've declared it months ago, it's a meaningless buzzword, which so far has giving us no more tangible results than we'd had before. Some good things about some terrible.
