Hold on a minute - I was the one advocating picking Foakes but you didn't think his county average this season was high enough!

Dude. Don't use logic against Ratboy. His poor head will explode

How can they decide contracts without a coach in post?

Doesn't the coach come first and they give contracts to those he wants to use / style of play he wants to impose?

They don't award contracts but its based on who is gonna play

to be fair if Ali gets back in ahead of Leach will be a number of games to play and he will trigger it

Fair enough, I just think common sense would be to employ the coach who will decide how he wants the team to play and involve him in the contract discussions rather than the ecb award contracts and tie the coaches hands together

The lack of names mentioned as even talking to him is a worry especially with a tour coming up in a short amount of time

Shouldn't really be surprised with the ecb and their recent decisions.

The upsurge in crowds for the t20 and tests makes the 100 even more of a bizarre decision, they then appoint foreign coaches despite it being a year away while not even apparently talking to anyone about the England job
