Averaging 22 this season.

To be fair to Bell, he only averaged 26 last time he played in Australia, so he may still have a chance.

Bell does have the experience but deciding to give up the captaincy at Warwickshire because his form was so poor hardly bodes well.

I like him but I think we've moved on.

The ECB kicking Durham in the knackers again by 'resting' Stokes for tonight's match. Cunts.

I really feel for that county. Given first class status to get an international ground together, given crap Test matches in May against the lowest ranked teams in cold weather, relegated and another season ruined with a hugely unnecessary points deduction and now the one international game they receive, the favoured son and main attraction isn't allowed to play.

Pathetic all round.

Playing a night game in Durham in mid-September. :rolleyes:
FFS it was cold and dew on the ground. Fair play to WI for winning in those conditions.

What is the point of Jason Roy. Might as well put the groundskeeper's cat into bat.

Is it bad up there. Holden? Quite foggy down in the Mids an hour or so ago but the sun's burnt through the clouds and it's turning out to be a beautiful, autumnal day.

Lack of adequate covering at OT is embarrassing. Should be playing, looks like being a significant delay.

Playing cricket up north in September is bonkers. Beautiful day down here, could have played it at the Ageas.

It's poor covering. There is cricket going on at Headingley (quick pause to lol at the score!) and Durham.

Also the Rose Bowl is a shit hole dumped in the middle of nowhere that replaced one of the nicest county grounds on the circuit.
