0-1 and 1 game to play vs New Zealand.

Normally we are down 0-2 heading into 3rd. Nobody expected this.


So how can we win the next match? Will take some doing but if it is going to be a slow turning track I would play the following:


King

Campbell

Athanaze he can bowl as well.

Hope

Hodge

Greaves

Chase

Imlach

Roach

Phillip

Seales

I Hope that tage is back, to replace Imlach, he is just occupying space. wI. don’t need one player to keep, and another to bat, we need 1 wicket keeper, batsman, and that’s hope, for now.

Hope is your best batsman why you want him to return to wicket keeping duties.

You have not yet realized that when Hope keeps his return as a batsman is poor.

let Hope continue to play purely as a batsman.

Dunce Sammy might want to take your suggestion seriously !!!

Don't rate Tage Bro. In any case we can win that game, just need to get a good 1st innings score.


We are in a good position, don't mind the negative vibes.

Hope will not keep. However if Imlach fails again we may have to consider other options going forward. Imlach actually has a good FC average with 6 tons but I guess that shows us the quality of the R4D.

i waited until Friday nite to stay up and watch some cricket; this team that is trusting in processes and moving up, and going in some right direction and making almost wins and calling draws victories couldn’t even last 2 days and 2 sessions??

A hawk spit to the fans from this regime
