Crawley vs Foakes 13:17 - May 18 with 1310 viewsCharlie_pl_baxter

Just watching Surrey Kent from the office window and was enjoying watching Crawley with Foakes keeping behind. Crawley set himself up well, started to play some classy shots and then nicked off for 19 (to slip not Foakes).

How is he keeping his place in the England side?

Mad innit. Seems he can only bat on flat subcontinent pitches.

I'd be happier if Foakes was opening

Crawley isn't even Kent's best opener

The moment I saw the post title I guessed that Crawley had managed to get himself out nicking off again.

What sort of dirt has he got on the selectors, one wonders.

It's a joke, Crawley's average for England is worse than Rory Burns. Surely it's time to give Keaton Jennings another go. He was leading runs scorer in Division 1 of the Championship last season and so far this season is averaging over 90.

There is no obvious alternative though. Vince? Malan? Burns, Jennings etc are all bust.

I'm never going to understand Crawley. He dropped a couple of stinkers when at slip too.

The other option is to upset the balance further down the order and ask Brook to open.

I think we all know that the answer is Wayne Madsen.

Apparently his dad knows Rob Key very well, which makes you wonder.

Given the way we're looking to play, we could do a lot worse than give Bairstow another go there. He opens in limited overs cricket and it's unlikely he'd do worse than Crawley.

I genuinely think that Bairstow will not perform as a test opener and he’s a very high class middle order bat. If it’s accepted that Crawley isn’t good enough then he should be replaced by an opener. I know it’s old fashioned.
