Yeah I know, @The Rat keeps mentioning he has a central contract and Wood doesn’t.Delighted for him. I agree with The Rey in that he always seems to get more stick than the likes of Crawley and Sibley but he won’t now. Good player and a great start to the summer for him.
Well he can't be tagged so I'm bemused what he's done to get banned again.Yeah I know, @The Rat keeps mentioning he has a central contract and Wood doesn’t.
It’s a bad comparison as the bottom
line is Burns is the best opener in the country
Yeah, I'm disappointed in Pope. Two years ago he looked like he had the world at his feet, but he just hasn't kicked on.Well he can't be tagged so I'm bemused what he's done to get banned again.
But he can throw that criticism to Sibley, Crawley and Pope now.
Pope is the most disappointing as he's clearly capable. He can fuck off turning into Vince mk II
Pope really needs to kick on I agree. I’m more worried he becomes Ramprakash mkII. Vince doesn’t even have great first class recordWell he can't be tagged so I'm bemused what he's done to get banned again.

Yeah and one is in a group of opening batsman in a sub standard era for opening batsman and another is a excellent fast bowler in a brilliant era for fast bowlersIts a bad comparison seeing as one is a batsman and the other is a bowler.
I think the Ramps comparison is a better one and Crawley is very Vincesque with him always being a loose drive away from being out. I’m no fan of Vince at all but I would back him to score more runs in Australia than Sibley, Crawley and possibly Pope if we were playing the Ashes next week. They need to step up this summer but there will be lots of opportunities for them to do so.Well he can't be tagged so I'm bemused what he's done to get banned again.

Ian Bell’s dead boyPope really needs to kick on I agree. I’m more worried he becomes Ramprakash mkII. Vince doesn’t even have great first class record
Most likelyShame The Rat isn't around, I'd be intrigued to know if he still thinks Burns shouldn't be anywhere near the side...

Hello mate good to have you back. I think the issue with Burns is that you are really critical of him in particular but get really defensive when others are critical of other players, arguably poorer ones such as Sibley, Crawley, Bess etc.He is OK, no more than that, he averages low 30s, and he will never average more than that
I think the reaction to the defeat is way over the top personlly, but I think as a general point, the fact Burns is seen as a 100% starter and a success story, while averaging low 30s, tells you a lot.
Whatever his test average is, he is the best opening batsman in the country in red ball cricket.He is OK, no more than that, he averages low 30s, and he will never average more than that
