rav the chav for me
i have a lot of time for dalrymple but he's in no touch whatsoever with bat and ball.
they are both similar players in that their strengths are hitting the gaps but can dominate when necessary, bowling steady areas and good fielding, so you take with one in form with the most confidence

Bopara' s bowling has the edge for me with his subtle variety. Dalrymple is too flat and predictable.

Dalrymple for me. The type of wickets in the carribean you need 2 spinners so you have Monty and Dalrymple.

Bopara. just what is the point of Dalrymple? for a start we dont need 2 spinners and we could do with a batsman that actually scores runs...

Ronnie Irani, can't bowl and field very well. Could get ten runs on a good day.
Jamie Dalrymple for me.

Pietersen is a genius but he's also the most irresponsible batsman and selfish player in the side, if he ever gets anywhere near the captaincy we just as well pack up and go home.

i'm just wondering what has impressed people so much of kp's bowling; is it his inability to turn it an iota or the consistency with which he bowls long-hops?
he averages 50 with the ball after about 450 first-class overs; the stats tell the story
pietersen is maturing as a person and does have some leadership qualities but he is still far too engrossed in his own game to start to worry about what others are doing. i don't buy the irresponsible batsmen bit either
