Sad to think what he might have done for England had the selectors taken the same "oh well, he's fat" approach that they have with Fat Sammy...
-
Will be missed as he could play some
-
Blackdog.... a very good player and a top bloke too! I wonder if he'll be turning out in the Somerset league of WEPL now for Ilton where he's an honorary vice president.
-
He might find a 2020 contract elsewhere u never know.some counties like kent need players but dont have big budgets for players.with his shape he was never going to play much for England- he likes a pint.
U just got to ask why rob key has only played a handfull of tests.the best opener in the country after tres in his prime and didnt toe the line.
Im not a kent supporter either!
-
Key's fitness must have been a factor in his non-selection for england, agree that on his day he is international standard but consistency another weakness
-
To be fair I think Key peaked at the wrong time - didn't he play in the 2004 series v West Indies, but then where would you have had him in the 05 Ashes team?
-
Blackie is asking where the story has come from on twitter as he said Durham haven't commented and neither has he!
-
Key hit 200 against the windies in 2004.
As for the 2005 ashes i would of batted him 3.hes one on the best allround openers in the game-admittedly past his best now.
He likes a fag and a pint and quite right fitness was a problem.
There have been recent test players carrying some weight-patel,flintoff,key,croft etc.
He's one for you:jessie ryder-i cant believe there are any NZ fans that do not want this guy in the test side-and he's carrying some timber.
Likes a drink too!!
Hope he gets a recall against us-sky sports reckons he is close to re selection
-
Ridiculous - he should be on most county's shopping lists once he's over the surgery.
He's a maverick, but he's a talent.
I'd sign him for Chertsey in a heatbeat - we've ot lots of beer and fags!
