Beaton and our fast bowling stocks.

I know its just four overs but throughout the season this guy looks a more penetrative option than Joseph and Cummins.

Cummins sorely missed out on proving himself on this last test at Lords...he is the 'swing' bowler in the squad and this would have been a do or die for him.

Joseph has lost pace for some reason.

I place Beaton ahead of them and with the return of Roach and the effectiveness of the fast bowlers I pencil him in for the NZ upcoming test series.

Yeh he look world class. Am worried about his ankle problems. To make matters worse it's his landing foot

Plenty of pace options around, it's time a couple of them hit a bit of consistency.

Beaton is a pelter. Develop one or both of those Jamaica youngsters instead

Beaton don't wanna play test cricket.. years now he struggling with ankle and knee problems.. prefer to play 50 over and t20..

Last year the Jaguars asked him to play couple match in the PCL.. told them he's not available..

Will copy and paste this here.

Beaton didn't play a game in the last 4-day tournament, because no team drafted him.

After all he has 64 wickets in 33 matches at 33 runs per wicket in FC cricket.
