England Cricket ‏@ECB_cricket now
EPP declare on 220 for 2. Ballance the last wicket on 89. Robson 108*. WA XI lead by 99 runs from 1st innings. 51 overs left today.
Super start for the EPP. WA XI are 14-4. Tymal has taken 3 wickets and Chris Jordan 1.

I note the other day that Derek Pringles suggested that England pick Tymal Mills because he bowls heat. Never seen him bowl, wonder what numbers he puts up.

Ge got it up to 95mph on Sky this summer. Hit Graeme Swann on the hand in the Essex v England game and then while out in Aus this winter he's hit Cook twice, badged Root, hit Carberry in the gut and cleaned up Bell who apparently said "Why the **** isn't this guy in the Essex side every week?"

Well I mentioned it earlier ****, but I guess you only listen to crap all-rounders with poncey ear-rings.

Honestly, he's the quickest English bowler I've seen I think, makes Devon Malcolm look accurate and consistent though. I'd have played him in this match, but mainly because we're utterly desperate, and none of the alternatives look great.

 

[BoyBrumby]

I've mentioned this before, but will again as I enjoy a bit of vicarious fame claiming: Tymal plays for Mildenhall CC and their captain is my boss's boss.

Massive fat basford he is too; must be 22 stone.

 

[91Jmay]

If we play him before he actually has a good season for Essex then County Championship is officially pointless. He took 6 wickets at 66s in Div 2.

 

[mintykip]

He couldn't have been doing much worse than Bresnan is at the moment, 0/72 bowling 130km/h pies.

 

[91Jmay]

He could literally be doing loads worse and he also isn't anywhere near the bat Bresnan is. He'd have been an atrocious selection. Agaresq.

 

[Spark]

That's not fair in the slightest.



Agar could bat

Anyone know why they played Ballance only to not pick him for Perth.

Well, I'd have played him, but in the end I guess it makes more sense the fringe players actually getting a game then them doing nowt.
