Players like water will settle at the level they belong...

Ur lead post is right... unfortunately they don't have what it takes yet to go to the next level... Jason Mohammed was like that for a long while...

to be honest both those two and Hope got some very difficult balls.

I did not see the delivery that got hope, but you are correct Brooks and Chase got two nasty deliveries after playing really well. If this were a fashion show, Brooks would will win hands down.Like Carl Hooper before him, he is real easy on the eyes.

Hope's ball was even worse...a ball that rolled all along the ground and bowled him.

This is the second incarnation of Brooks. The first time it was taken for granted that he would go all te way. He was even made captain.

If this were a fashion show, Brooks would will win hands down.

Rass bway, yuh good! The man comes from a family of the best photographers in Bim.

In reply to analyst-kid These guys are good enough to be around but not mentally strong enough to be an ingredient in a winning formula at the next level. ..... add Dowrich

That explains the dilemma the selectors are faced with. These guys are at the same level as the others, and since there is no separation,they can actually throw the names in a hat and play what comed up. We simply do not have any test quality players.
