The top order looks inconsistant and it is, while Flintoff is still not matching his potential. Monty won the battle, but New Zealand won the war in this game. Poor batting by England again, how many more times will it be said.Chrispyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17116768172493122694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37251922.post-60916077245949157822007-03-16T22:43:00.000+00:002007-03-16T22:43:00.000+00:00darn...KP proved me wrong with the bat :(darn...KP proved me wrong with the bat :(Homerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13949049044524078820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37251922.post-19709096809843529812007-03-16T13:35:00.000+00:002007-03-16T13:35:00.000+00:00KP wont be a factor- if the wicket keeps low and s...KP wont be a factor- if the wicket keeps low and slow and the ball does not come to the bat- I get the feeling he prefers a pacier wicket.<BR/><BR/>Why is it that the England batting lineup is so bottom heavy?Homerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13949049044524078820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37251922.post-49205146558332053262007-03-16T09:51:00.000+00:002007-03-16T09:51:00.000+00:00Yes the offspin of Patel and Dalrymple, possibly e...Yes the offspin of Patel and Dalrymple, possibly even Taylor and KP could come into it if Kenya's performance was anything to go by. The success of either Monty or Vettori could be one of the keys to determining the outcome though and it will be fascinating to see who wins that battle of left arm spin.<BR/><BR/>The medium pacers could proove useful too of course!Chrispyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17116768172493122694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37251922.post-76873525068420637502007-03-16T00:14:00.000+00:002007-03-16T00:14:00.000+00:00not to forget Jeeten Patel ( if he plays).
