Well, it’s no immediate help, but if Freddie’s going to play in the next set of one-dayers (I forget where) as a batsman only he might as well open…
And coming out to open?
By Emma 4 years ago, at the start of September Add your comment below
So who exactly will be opening the batting tomorrow? It seems as if Trescothick is not expected to, though I have not seen any mention of his being removed from the squad. There are also murmurs that Pietersen might be promoted to open. David Lloyd has been consistent in his belief that England don’t, and should, make more of the early powerplays. Could Pietersen do the trick? I’m not convinced. But I think Ian Bell should open, so what do I know.
Thoughts, anyone?
