Feck me we have a middle order that couldn't muster 100 runs between them and they are bitching about an out of form good bloke

As you say though batting is a big thing now and we have enough blokes who can give it a wack..another grinder (as In Nevill) is v handy for team balance.

Stumps wrote:Yes and yes. Admit Haddin wasn't his best at Cardiff but when was the previous catch he dropped before that test? We can judge nevill after 66 tests I suppose. Nevill has already grassed one in the two tests he played and didn't even go for one that Voges dropped on his left. Haddin would have taken that on the inside. Lehmann when asked in the reasons for dropping Haddin said 'the cold hard facts are he's played the last 12 Test matches and made 250 runs at 15, with 16 bowleds (sic) out of 21,"
Note No mention of keeping
re: his personality ...it's not relevant. Haddins teammates seem to love him though which counts for a bit more than your opinion
