Could be if we can get rid of McCullum cheaply McCullum scares the bejezus out of me. Him and AB de Villiers. Can change a game in 10 overs. For me De Villiers is probably the best bat in the world at the moment

Oh Moeen.
Was looking good before that.
Important 5-10 overs coming up now. Can we recover and put a stand together, or is it going to be the traditional collapse. One more and Eoin in, which in his current form is worth another wicket.

Get them sorted and he'll be a top cricketer for us for the next 10 years in all forms of the game.

Get them sorted and he'll be a top cricketer for us for the next 10 years in all forms of the game. Poor footwork against the short ball and he takes his eye off it .....But he's not the first to do that !......no reason for him not to put it right if he works at it

But he's only being playing international cricket - if I'm not mistaken - for a year now (regularly at least). Seems like he's been there for ages.

Absolutely fantastic fielding from Milne then.
Could you image Bob Willis doing that? Or Graham Dilley? Pringle?

We haven't lost a wicket for half an hour. Things are looking up.

Perhaps that says a lot more about how the team have been playing rather than him

I know you are mate .....With good reason he's a decent cricketer on the whole ......if he can improve his bowling he will be an outstanding all rounder He has lots of talent. Given a year of sticking with him I think we could have a right good cricketer on our hands. He just needs to keep on doing something with the bat or ball that keeps him in the team.

I think you would struggle to find a reason to leave him out ....he's done everything for the most that has been asked of him ( in the case of his bowling , a bit more ) in all forms since being selected .....after Ballance he has been the success story of the last few months .

whilst the bowling may be bland and predictable you cn't help but admire McCullum's talent

Embarrassing, abject, pathetic, spineless, arrogant. Just some of the words I'd use to describe our 50 over team at the moment. It might piss it down during the break I suppose (what a ridiculous rule that they have to go off for a break 12 runs from victory)
