Mahmood clearly has the potential to be a very good player.

However, is taking him halfway round the world and throwing him into international T20s ahead of time going to help him develop or do more harm than good in the long run?

I’d be interested to see how the win/loss percentage varies between matches where Vince is involved, and those where he isn’t. It seems to me that we lose more than we win whenever he’s involved.

Personally, I’m amazed England gave him another go, as he was absolutely shocking during the World Cup, and he must frustrate everyone within the setup with his amazing ability to looks fantastic, right up until the moment he gets out to a truly idiotic shot.

Not sure 109 runs in 3 games is a bad return is it? Plus losing wasn't just down to Vince. We could and should have still won it needing 20 off 18 with 5 wickets left! We all know he can look good for 20 or 30 and get out, but so can others. In shorter formats he's better than he has been in tests.

Better in short formats? Hardly, Vince has two fifties in 24 white ball games and still averages under 30. I think the point where anyone might learn something new about him in international cricket is long gone now, backup at best.

Mahmood's county record in white ball is superb, he's earned the callup even if it maybe does come early. There's a world cup on next year though, so now is the time to be giving debuts - no point chucking someone in late.

Still disappointed Benny Howell hasn't got a go...

Exactly. Averages just over 30 in T20s as opposed to 24 in tests, so better. Thanks for proving the point :D Still harsh to put that defeat at his door imo, whether we know all about him at this level or not.

Ah you may have a point there, would make it hard for him to play! Fingers crossed for the home summer next year, although I'll still be amazed if England take the leap.

Bairstow called up to test squad as cover for denly

Wonder what odds you'd get on denly not being fit and Jonny playing??

Pretty poor surely given Sibley and Crawley were in the squad ahead of him.

Amazing display of power! Highest 3rd wicket partnership in t20.
