before NCN's 92 I was a big advocate for swapping NCN for lyon

now you can't of course haha


No way would I drop maxwell. We are already unbalanced and if we have to chase 350 in a match Maxwell's the only player that can really force the pace

Gday gb
jaszyjim - Ironically I think the team is a better balanced side without Maxwell. We already have
all rounders that are performing and Maxwell on his last performance with both bat & ball is just baggage.
In reality we posted a big score once 5 down without Maxwell. If he is in the team for India and
probably will be, his bowling will just get creamed. If he then doesn't score where are we at for making the finals.
I seem to be the only one saying dump him, so everyone else thinks he is a necessary requirement
for us to win the world cup. 
To balance the team and slow down the big hitters we need 2 spin bowlers - with the medium pace all rounders
this a good batting / bowling balance to the team, with an eye on winning the cup, not just performing well
in the preliminary matches.
