bell does neither , you cant afford his strike rate when he is not going on to make the big scores like cook and trott do
Well aside from the fact that the season before last Bell made over 900 list A runs with 2 tons and 7 fifties at an average of over 60 being the second highest run scorer in the entire country behind Trott as well as two fifties from four innings in T20.
Didn't have a great season last year, but he's in form has already made 82 off 84 in his one pro 40 innings this year.
