Crawley's FC numbers look pretty underwhelming TBH. Did he play really well for England A teams or Under 19's etc.? How was he in South Africa?

It seems to be a style over susbtance decision of sorts, his original selection screamed "I like his style and being on tour will help his development", then Burns's injury saw him get lucky. In saying that he did do well enough in South Africa.

Interesting stat that - bowlers with highest % dismissals bowled (presumably over 100 wickets or something like that):

Lindwall
Statham
Ramadhin
Tate
Barnes
Shoaib
Gabriel

Surprised Trueman isn't there. Good chance of being next I reckon. Spofforth has them all beat.. I wonder they excluded Lohmann as well.

Never would have guessed that someone could do that in modern cricket. Though I bet a lot more of them are played on.

ugh, was just about to post that this was the 3rd most economical spell thus far in the history of test cricket.

Stokes already looking a class apart from the batsmen who have batted so far. Roach to Stokes might be rough though. If Stokes nicks off, can see England lollapsing hard here.
