He has hit alot of runs this year

Maybe the selectors will have to look out for him

Yeah they did wasnt that bad ,
Followed durham for a long time try to attend every home match ,
Reason or so were told he was dropped was because selectors thought he was too chunky, Phil has put alot of work in to loose it but Phil himself believe he is past it now .

Yeah Mustard looked the goods.
Hamilton-Brown is very hit or miss, great batsman when he is on but it's just not often enough

I think rory brown will be completley looked over for the england team,
Just not good enough , Jason Roy should be in f20
Would love durham to snap him up if we ever got chance

I think he is Woodstock sponsored. There is some info about the brand somewhere here if you do a quick search on it mate :)

If Rory can improve his bowling and become more consistent with it, then he has a chance to potentially challenge for the spinning role in the England team. Granted he isn't a Swann at this point. But it appears that England prefer to have a spinner who can bat, so we can bat almost all the way down to 11. Rory is a good batsmen and an average bowler, but if he can improve that bowling aspect, he has a chance to break in. Heck, Giles wasn't exactly the biggest spinner of a ball, or the best spinner in the country; however, he was very accurate, consistent, and could bat a bit and it gave him the nod. Rory could be the same...

As a batsmen he has little to no chance. Then again, Bopara keeps getting the nod  ???

i dont agree with bopara's selection, either james taylor, joss butler or patel if we want an allrounder.
having said that i would love to see borthwick go to india next year with swann.
