Six and Out - Some Serious Cricket

We don’t like change

by SixandOut on June 17th, 2006

steve harmisonGet off my land. Ooo-ar. Oh, sorry. Flashback. Former life. Anyway. There’s something about the current England one-day side that bothers me. It just doesn’t feel like an England side. Well, it does, in as much as the side keeps changing and it’s still a bit pants when it actually comes to playing cricket, but some of the new faces… I’m just not feeling them. I’m getting a bit protective, broody even, over my England side. All these new upstarts in England shirts, though, walking about like they own the place, when they’ve not been there 5 seconds. Grrr.

With the exception of Steve Harmison coming back from injury, and Tresco and Strauss, the side is virtually brand new. And this statement is based on a sound bed of absolutely zero fact, but, a few of the players in there just don’t look good enough to be in an England side. In fact, the average age of the England one-day side playing at Lord’s today in the first Eng v SL ODI is 26. I’m 26, and not a good enough cricketer to be in the England side. I wonder when I’ll get the call?
