Read in, Jones out...can have no complaints. Jones came in for lack of runs on Read's part, now tables have turned. Title: Third Test Squad... Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Monday, July 31, 2006, 12:15:27 yes im in favour of the move. im a Jones fan but he hasn't justified his place this summer. Read also deserves another chance
Title: Third Test Squad... Post by: fatbury on Monday, July 31, 2006, 12:27:18 good decision - at least until Read starts dropping catches and getting out for nought
Although Jones has been in all the winning teams .. perhaps its harsh? Title: Third Test Squad...

Post by: cib on Monday, July 31, 2006, 14:40:23 It's a little harsh, but the selectors were as or even more harsh on Read when we were in the Caribbean. Im not a Jones fan to be fair, but competition for places is there now, so can only be a good thing. but if Read doesnt take this chance he isn't coming back
