haddin is not better than goodwin, goodwin maybe about 60 but imo hes one of the best players in the world and its a shame that he didnt have the chance to prove this more with zimbabwe at test level

goodwin is not what he was. until a career saving 100 for sussex last year he could barely scrape a run. haddin may be a ch*at but boy can he time a straight drive ...

The only reason Haddin and Hughes and some others did'nt get bought was because of their test duties meaning that they could'nt play many games.

It is a shame Murray didnt get grabbed, probably his last year so guess he was after few extra quid. Wasnt last year his benefit? That usually effects form.
I played against Murray in the winter of 07/08 and he scored 160 not out batting at 3 in a 50 over game. Was one of them innings where you were happy to be bowling at him and witnessing it first hand.
