Yep, it'd need someone to tweak the criteria. It'd be interesting to know how many applicants they'll get. There's probably a joke to be made about a team with notorious batting problems looking to sign a part time batting coach!

reminds me of Eddie Jones watching his England side being routed match after match because they can't defend and responding by replacing his attacking coach

Someone on Twitter was posting some of Trump's 'highlights' of last year - in response to one of the numerous school shootings he said the problem was that schools were virtually gun-free zones and therefore very dangerous places.

No wonder Lewis did a runner-he meets none of the criteria.

A must read book, I'm sure it will be excellent. Such a shame Rayner wasn't covering the games last year and presumably won't be doing them this year .

A new name to me but I don't know much about the 2nds so it probably is him.

I'm sure it was you,capt. , who posted about him last season. Said you'd been alerted by someone itk at the Riverside who was waxing lyrically about him.

Ah right! It was probably the guy I talk to who watches lots of club and 2nd 11 cricket! I have a recollection now of him being impressed with a bowler but forget the name - it must be him!

I see that Ben Raine is in NZ to play for Otago in the super smash. I wonder if that's through Paul Wiseman?
