You referring to us TC??
Not sure of the club. Caught the tail end of some chatter about it 'out the back' at the test match. I assumed Prospect
Would have thought Prospect too, paying him same coin as Turley and getting no benefit at all.
Our situation only developed last couple of days, so would not have been discussed at Test Match!!
Our Pom has been told by his Club to return home, wont even let him bat this weekend even though he leaves on Tuesday. Has signs of stress fractures, sore back, typical bowler. Only bowled in one game and pulled up sore. But been a gun batter, such a clean hitter, was going to be a guru in the 20/20's.
Chuck in the news Kelvin Smith been signed by Renegades (awesome for him, but BBL goes for 2 months!), fair to say our batting taken a real hit now. Good opportunity for kids who have been pretty inconsistent all year in 2nd Grade like Carrington and Crouch to get plenty of game time now.
One reason I always hate getting overseas players, would rather develop your own youth!
