He should be 6 for the time being and if he develops as many expect him to he should move up the order. And on tje 8-10 overs front, he is a better bowler than that. He is a wicket taker so will bowl a lot more than Shane Watson

i agree he will bowl more than 8-10 - shane watson would probably be used more if it wasn't for fitness issues, stokes has no such problems since his finger got sorted.

don't agree about moving him up the order unless he really kicks on, he never really looked the part when being moved up the order at durham, still think his best role is as a basher than a real accumulater.. although he looked pretty calm and reserved through out some of his knocks, he still got out with a rush of blood to the head against harris and i don't think he quite has the range of batting, ball manipulation to stick around along time when the fielders move in...
 
Saw he was born and bred in the north east as well :lol::lol:

Also says "the regionhas not had a front-line superstar of global acclaim since Alan Shearer was breaking international transfer records"

So Steve Harmison and Colly don't exist.

What a shocking article

Or since Jonathan Edwards won Olympic Gold?
