Tommy Fresh

Wasn't his initial call up under Smith as well, who went to the same school as Crawley (obviously at different times) He was undroppable then, he's definitely not getting dropped with Rob Key being about and with how they play now

Duckett and Rahul over Jaiswal

Crawley managed a whopping 6 runs more than Sundar having played a test more

He's played for the Lions recently hasn't he? I don't think the Italy involvement hinders calling him up does it

Yeah I agree he probably won't go

Josh Tongue wasn't great against Zimbabwe either.... I think Gay will get a chance eventually

Yeah Pope is one of those who's great at county level but can't consistently transfer that to test level. Don't call Cook up at all then until after this winter, worth noting though that Cook was on the Lions tour of Australia and was actually very good

Like I said no overly bothered about Crawley anymore, but hopefully we do see some others given a chance after The Ashes if he doesn't do much.

We won't drop Crawley and I'm less arsed about him under McCullum because he clearly plays the role they want, but Emilio Gay should probably be under consideration, as should Tom Haines, Alex Lees has also probably done enough to be considered again as well. Rehan is a better batting/spin option than Bethell. We gave Sam Cook one game and seemingly binned him off because he wasn't great on debut.

Don't get your point? I'm saying we're good now, but we'd be a lot better if we picked players to support the core of the team, who'd actually warranted the call up

Imagine how good we'd be if we weren't padding the squad with vibes

Yeah but I've made my feelings on Crawley clear before

Fair play to Bethell and Overton for helping us run this game so close

Really pleased we picked Overton superb contribution with bat and ball

Crazy India have even let it get this close really

Bethell is the definition of a vibes selection

He's still crap brother

Am I the only one who is never impressed by Overton, I think he's crap

Derbyshire in a mess

Sold Dorgeles to Braga didn't they, so whether they'd hold off selling for another season, even though they're a selling club.

Yeah not as if he just whinged about it, he really made himself sound like a twat

Class if neither of these reach their hundreds now

Also took a golden chance in that game that was wrongly disallowed

Doesn't the Leeds game kind of sum him up though, got an assist and had a goal wrongly disallowed, along with the miss
