Since he came back into the England Squad after some time out, I think that he looks a far more better and more accomplished batsmen since being out of the squad. Definately worthy a spot in the ODI Team and T20. However Test's cricket may still be a couple of years away in my eyes! :)

He wouldn't have even played if Buttler didn't split his webbing. He's just rubbish! A S/R of 92 in International T20 os just not good enough!

I feel as if he would have, he's also a fairly good bowling option! He's also played some fairly crucial innings for the team when required. I've been very impressed since he come back.

It's about confidence with Ravi which in recent
years he has lacked big time, it's in there somewhere that straight six off Junaid proved that surely lol

Do you reckon there's a correlation between his scores using a GM bat and scores using GM stickers!?

If that was the case then the stickers are worth a lot more runs/money :)

What? 1 over for 8? Match winning performances! Sorry, there are better players in England. Buttler and Bairstow for 1 are twice the players he is, and still 6 years younger. Bopara has scored how many runs? Against which teams? And how many times when it really matters?
