Hammy wasting opportunities!

94 and even 99 are still fifties. Concentrate, get those extra 10 runs!
You are consistent but three figures are better than two.

Good point...but that said, it seems that Ramdin has given up on four-day and Test cricket, so Hamilton is the only keeper making runs. At this rate, Hamilton will be Dowrich's deputy next year.

Got a bit tight in the 90's was a soft dismissal as he played it with the turn into the hands of a gleeful leg slip.

He will be alright. His average is over 50 this season and he just needs to stay consistent....Tons would be nice for the archives but 90's are not too bad for the averages.


Need to keep pressure on Dowrich as competition is healthy for our Cricket.

Agreed. With gloves on his hands behind the sticks, he is magical!

I'd forgotten that Ambris has been keeping wicket too...the competition between Hamilton and Ambris should be interesting.

If Ambris gets three figures, and Hamilton doesn't, well....

Hammie is the better keeper. Hammie has also been outperforming Ambris with the bat the last two seasons and so far this one.

Not only better but absolutely necessary...

Hamilton 125

Proud of the kid man!

Well, as it turned out, Hamilton got the century, and Ambris did not....

 
Mr-Anguilla 2016-12-13 09:05:45 

In reply to mikesiva

I would love for both of them to have. Strength through pressure of competition!

People tend to remember centuries and forget about 90s. So we have what: three keepers (Dowrich, Hope, Hamilton)? I think Bramble has talent but he underperforms. Devon Thomas is another very talented guy.
