We do.

Is there a law that says Will Smith has to come out of the attack after bowling the first over?!

I always thought Tahir was a great signing. :hide
He's keeping us in this game. Just need someone to at least bowl economically at the other end.

54 needed from 5 overs - Tahir in his last over but he has just taken another wicket.
I'm sure our reliable death bowlers will ensure his great spell is not in vain. :scared

Needed that. Might restore some confidence.

Hopefully. Wonder if it was tricky batting conditions or a sign that Tahir will be a match winner if we post even a decent total. Probably a combination of the two.
Vital also that Colly got some runs, sounded as if he was unlucky to get run out - direct hit from 25 yards! If he can regain some form this might not be a disastrous season after all.

Not coincidence that when the overseas performs we win thegame. Only other telling contribution was Markram v Leics in CC -we won both games.

Hopefully that'll kickstart his second half of the 4 day season. I wondered if he should be playing T20 but it's probably more beneficial for him to concentrate on the longer form for now.
