I think Harmison's point was that Stokes traditionally is a top order batsman, he isn't someone who comes in at 8 and slogs the ball round....he is a proper batsman, and hasnt really had the time to prove it...obviously he cant bat up the order at the moment, because others deserve their chance, but clearly Stokes is a proper and talented batsman

my point which kinda makes that redundant CF is that he has a lot of t20 experience and in t20s he does have to come in and start slogging the ball straight away, and is capable of doing so as evidenced by what he did today

Flintoff's back in.

He only scored 7 with the bat though.

Scorchers off to a bad start, nervy litle run chase this..

[Aidan11]

They're waiting for Freddie to bowl so they can tuck in.

[andy]

if he bowls, they've already used 6 i belueve, and he wasnt one of them..

[Aidan11]

Carberry's hitting his straps.

[Aidan11]

He hit two sixes and a four of Fred's first over.


Give it up Fred. It's a young man's game.

[Aidan11]

Thumping win for Scorchers and Carbs saw it through 77*.

[Aidan11]

37 ball 77s seem to be common at present for England players who are not playing for England.

I don't think that he will be back for BBL5.

Before today's game, I would have said the same about Carberry. Might need to rethink that.

[GarlicJam]

It's a young man's game.

Except for one old fella.

*apologies to Paul Robeson*

Right now he couldn't make a 77 ball 3.
