There May Be Trouble Ahead...


Here's Freddie!
Ok....what do you think? Has he got it? Can he win a game as skipper? Not sure this is the right game to win. It would be nice...but the cynic in me thinks that Virgil has dived out in order to save his stats! Can't be so, can it?
Seriously, this match coming is a must-win. We won't win but we must compete. If we don't compete then we (and the Kiwi's) must simply get on the plane and go home.
He was good the other day though. Batted really well. Looked strong and stress-free. If anyone was the new IT Botham it's this man; brilliant with ball and bat but no good as a skipper! Sorry Freddie...but you're just not a captain...a fantastic cricketer but not a skipper.

When we called him 'the next Botham' we didn't consider that he might adopt Beefy's captaincy-skills as well.

Indeed...it does look as if he has already!
