And while we're on the subject of working-class boy done good Dan Lawrence, has the fact that he was used for just 2 out of well over 200 overs of spin in Sri Lanka not persuaded anyone that he's not seen as much of a bowling option?

He would be more of an option in one day cricket, you'd reckon.

Lawrence has fewer first class wickets than Jason Roy at a worse average and strike rate.  Jason Roy doesn't even have a bowling style listed on cricinfo!

Root attended King Ecgberts college in Sheffield. That is an academy and not a fee paying school. But I agree with your point.

He then attended Worksop college. However, it doesn't matter nobody will be thinking about it when he's churning out runs this week

I'd love to see the breakdown of when, where and why Jason Roy bowled 712 deliveries in first class cricket 😂

The Cricketer is claiming it was only £2 million!
Star originally want £20 million for the tour though, no surprise Sky said no thanks at that price.

I do think that Sky were setting down a marker that they wouldn't be held to ransom when those sums are far in excess of what the market will pay

I've seen him bowl. Medium pace. Remember it being quite tidy.

I knew. People kept mentioning his bowling. I said he would be way behind Joe Root in the pecking order.

The delayed response crowd noise was hilarious - 'quick, press the dropped catch button!'

I remember watching the game Roy made his first first-class ton, he was also bowling first change at that point! Quite nicely too.
