3 games in a row missed now, should we be concerned?

Yes and I’m not happy Archer is missing games as well.

 

[Inside Forward]

Why would you even risk yourself playing in this utter pish before an Ashes?

 

[Hettonlass]

Well if he leaves, he doesn't get paid so needs to sit out on there

For a million quid for two months work I’d risk playing T20 cricket in downtown Mogadishu to be fair like.

Stokes is already a multi-millionaire so I was surprised he risked further damage. He's chosen to miss IPLs in the past

4 games missed now for Archer...

 

[Voice of fair play]

Why would you even risk yourself playing in this utter pish before an Ashes?

Probably because it’s not what you say, and it’s a fantastic tournament that most top players if not all want to play in.

However is certainly a concern mind

I hope he's getting good advice (and listening to it), it feels like he's doing too much.

I don’t think Ben can relax and not go 100% in anything.

 

[Sillypoint]

needs to just call it a day and come home, rest up, CSK will no doubt keep him for another year like Lucknow did with Woody last season, needs to be fit for the ashes and be used as a 5th bowler when called upon, although he hardly bowls himself now hes captain

Quite remarkable this happens yet we have the likes of Potts and Carse rested by the ECB in April. I don't understand the logic behind it

 

[Aidan11]

I hope he's not going to be crocked for the Ashes but it doesn't look good.

 

[Hettonlass]

He's finished

 

[scotch]

3 weeks later and still not played any cricket....cause for alarm

very much so, he was silly

 

[Hettonlass]

No, he says he's in the best shape ever and will be fit and on form for Ashes
