Is Greaves injured?

Sat, Jul 11, '26 at 7:22 PM

Why is Auguste, Campbell and Carty playing ahead of him?

The opening pair should be Jangoo and Greaves!

I was wondering what happened to Greaves as well, he is in the squad.

Yea he’s injured! Has a back issue!

Greaves and Campbell were the openers vs Lanka. Greaves would have played ahead of Auguste if he was not injured. Not sure what is y'all issue with Carty who averages +40 . Only two other batsmen average+ 40 in this team: Hope and Rutherford.

Lots of cricket to play in a short space of time so we must load manage these players in particular those who play all formats.

Carty average on de decline for a while now... hopefully this inning changes that.

Finally passed 30+ after 15 ODI innings or something like that.

Everybody has a rough patch or two, but you do not forget the purple patch the had. Rutherford had rough patch too.

He pass 50 now. Even with the rough patch he still averages more than most.

Very true.
